Hello, Pulp Friends,

After "THE SCYTHE", my tribute to Ray Bradbury posted a couple of days ago, I am continuing the celebration of this great writer with a new tribute illustrating his episode for the beloved series TWILIGHT ZONE titled "I SING THE BODY ELECTRIC" (above) and  reposting a Pulp Sunday classic (below): the monstrous aliens of "It Came From Outer Space" ("Destinazione... Terra!" in its Italian release), written by Ray Bradbury in 1953and directed by Jack Arnold.

Wish you all a wonderful Pulp Sunday :)

Cheers,
Francesco

"It Came From Outer Space" (1953)

Hello, Pulp Friends,

1953 seemed to be the golden year for sci-fi and alien invasions.
After "Invaders From Mars" and "War of the Worlds", from the same year, we deal today with the monstrous aliens of "It Came From Outer Space" ("Destinazione... Terra!" in its Italian release), written by Ray Bradbury and directed by Jack Arnold.

Monstrous aliens, I said, but in this case first impressions can be deceiving.
Stranded in the Arizona desert, the monstrous, but pacific, crew of an alien ship xenomorphically take the aspect of the local people so they can fix the ship without alarming anyone and leave to go back home.
A classic indeed :)

Wish you all a wonderful Pulp Sunday :)

Cheers,
Francesco
