Satan’s Satellites, Missile Monsters
Double Bill Pressbook
The costumes worn by the aliens always fascinated me. And flying around in those spaceships wouldn't be too shabby, either.

The Bat (1959) Movie Pressbook
According to the Wikipedia article on The Bat, with Vincent Price and Agnes Moorehead, the movie was released on a double bill with Hammer's The Mummy. I wouldn't mind a midnight showing of this double bill. Hell, I'd watch Price in anything.

Frankenstein Monster Halloween Costume
I'm seeing the same box used for a few different Frankenstein Monster Halloween costumes listed on eBay. So…not sure which Monster is which.

Mogambo (1953) Movie Herald
I admit I only picked this up because of the big ape (the hairy one, not Clark Gable). Apes in jungle movies are cool. The newspaper-styled heralds handed out to promote movies were (and still are) cool, too. They were made of paper. You remember paper, don't you? The Planet of the Apes heralds are some of the best.

Of course, of course, it's the famous Mr. Ed, the talking horse, with moving mouth mask. I'm betting a lot of kids wearing this on Halloween got egged or shaving-creamed but good. Just sayin'. (This one comes from the stable of eBay'r 2013vintagetoys.)

Castle of Frankenstein No. 23, 1974
Good coverage of Roger Corman' Fantastic Planet and Not of This Earth, plus a solid layout with lots of photos, makes issue 23 of Castle of Frankenstein a good read. Unfortunately, coverage of the Planet of the Apes series, which could have been better represented, is marred by yet another dislike-fest (so much bitterness in the 1970s, oh my) from Paul J. Wishninsky (nom de plume alert?). Edward Felipe soothes the burn with his article on George Pal's Doc Savage. Sort of. He doesn't cover the movie, just provides a good background to the pulp superhero who predated Superman.
