“You’ll see a revolt that brings the planet under the domination of strangely masked females who HATE and FEAR the male animal!!!!!”
Happy Trailers MonsterGirl -who doesn’t hate the male animal…
Dennis Hopper, John Saxon, Basil Rathbone, AND Forry Ackerman (always a hit in your household)? I like QUEEN OF BLOOD ALREADY! And in QUEEN OF OUTER SPACE, is it me, or do those blue-gray uniforms look like the ones the guys wore in FORBIDDEN PLANET? Either way, Joey, your sure make them sound like fun!
Queen of Blood is quite eerie for its day, and not the usual Harrington psycho thriller that I LOVE!
And holy cow, I think you’re right about the uniforms!
I’m glad you’re having fun. I’ll have to pick something deliciously sinister for you next!!!!! Stay tuned…..
PS I used to own every Famous Monsters of Filmland as they were issued. Those were the days..sigh
