THE EARTH DIES SCREAMING 1964 (FOX)

I re-watched this very early on a Saturday morning and it makes a great way to start a day.

Willard Parker stars as one of a few survivors trapped in a small English town after aliens have wiped out the entire population.

The aliens themselves look rather bizarre and have a touch that can bring instant death to those they catch. The survivors hold up in an abandoned hotel and try and figure a way to escape. One of the women is killed and later comes back to life as an eyeless zombie who attempts to kill others until she is shot.

This is a very short but well made film that has been rediscovered and finally put on DVD. The cast is mostly unknown to audiences and includes Virginia Fields, Dennis Price, Thorley Walters, Vanda Godsell and David Spencer along with Anna Palk.

Thanks to Fox we now have it on DVD and no longer have to depend on sad looking bootlegs to get a good sci-fi fix. If you haven't seen this film you should.
