ASTOUNDING SHE MONSTER 1958 (IMAGE)

One of my favorites from the 50's, this short little gem is about a sexy space invader who really only walks around in the woods and kills several animals and then finds people as well. Her touch is deadly, and a small group of people including a geologist, three kidnappers and their hostage must fight for survival agaisnt this alien inavder.
Shirley Kilpatrick is the sultry alien and the ending really knocks the entire film out of the ballpark.
Thru the entire film the alien is represented as a menace who kills by touch, but in the end they find a message that she is a peaceful emissary from another world who wants to invite earth into the Council of Planets.
Kinda makes you scratch your head, but who cares, this is another fun film from the best era in movie history.
Robert Clarke, Kenne Duncan, Marilyn Harvey and Jeanne tatum round out the the small cast.
