Review of The Monolith Monsters (1957) by James-Masaki R — 05 May 2010

An oddity among the space invaders movies of the 50's and 60's. I give it a thumbs up for originality (Black crystals invading from outer space no less!), credible acting (for what they're given), but most of all as a timepiece tons of shots of vintage trucks and cars and ambulances, an old printing press that's hand powered, an old telephone operator switchboard (this stuff is cool!) and other stuff is very well filmed.

The crystal monsters are kind of impressive and don't come off as too silly, but are kind of boring, well they are rocks after all! Jack Arnold directed , the print quality is excellent, and Superman Returns are in fact the exact same effects for the crystals .
