1. (1957; Director: Gene Fowler, Jr.) This flick features Michael Landon as a crazy mixed-up teenager with some, ahem, anger issues. He reluctantly agrees to go to a shrink (Whit Bissell), who turns out to be the biggest crackpot in the state, and mayhem ensues. The plot gets hairy and so does Landon. He'll tear you up! AAGGGRRR! What is the name of this flick? Wolf Vs. Pigs: Payback! Howl, Wolf, Howl! I Was a Teenage Werewolf An American Werewolf in London

2. (1953; Director: William Cameron Menzies) Some kid (played by Jimmy Hunt) has a dream in which a Martian flying saucer is buried beneath a sandpit by the kid's house. The kid has all sorts of scary encounters with the Martians but, in the end, the U.S. Army blows them all up. All of the adult-sized Martians are robot-like, controlled by the "head" Martian - literally a basketball-sized head inside a fishbowl with tentacles. The kid wakes up, but we the audience then see a similar spaceship land. Oh, no! What is the name of this movie? The Angry Red Planet Santa Claus Conquers the Martians Invade This, Martians! Invaders From Mars

3. (1954; Director: Jack Arnold) Watch It!! Gill-Man's on the loose! This is another film where had two busybodies from America left well enough alone, there would have been no tragedy. But science had to be satisfied, so they (Richard Carlson and Richard Denning) bring the monster from his native Amazon to Florida USA, where he escapes, and well, mayhem ensues again. The scene in the experimental pool where they're "conditioning" the Gill-Man is bound to make you smile, especially when he busts loose! Name this flick. Creature From the Black Lagoon Gear Up for Gill-Man Gill-Man Strikes Creature Fron the Blue Lagoon

4. (1953; Director: Phil Tucker) What do you get when you dress a guy up in a gorilla suit and put a diving helmet plus TV antenna on his head? Pure cheese! One of the most un-terrifying "monsters" ever created, the above-described Ro-Man has destroyed all humanity on Earth with his Calcinator Death Ray except for our cast because... the darn thing doesn't work on them! George Nader and Claudia Barrett star (if you can call it that) in this flick, which got such bad reviews that director Tucker supposedly attempted suicide! What is the title of this movie? Robot Monster Ro-Man Vs. the Romans Invaders From the Death Galaxy Cry the Beloved Planet

5. (1958; Director: William Castle) This black-and-whiter revolves around a bet: ten thousand bucks to stay in a spooky house overnight (which was a goodly sum in those halcyon years). It stars an erudite but untrustworthy Vincent Price, a super-suave Richard Long and every cheese fan's favorite creep, Elisha Cook, Jr. Like any flick directed by schlockmeister Castle, it had a gimmick: "Emergo-vision." Name this movie. Helluva House House of the Seven Gables House on Haunted Hill House of the Rising Sun

6. (1959; Director: William Castle) Hey, you know when you're genuinely scared and your spine tingles? Well, does this movie have a theory for that! Vincent Price plays a coroner who "discovers" that there is a weird centipede-type creature, living in everyone's spine, that becomes stimulated when its host becomes terrified. The only way to stop this creature from "tingling" you to death is to scream, scream, SCREAM. Darryl Hickman co-stars with his contemporary real-life fiancee Pamela Lincoln. Name this cheesy entree. Buzz Me The Tingler The Tingler Strikes at Midnight Carry On Tingler

7. (1955; Director: Joseph M. Newman) A gathering of scientists are brought to a secret Alien hideaway after they prove they're smart enough to assemble an "interocitor" communication device. The main characters: scientists Meacham and Adams (played by Rex Reason and Faith Domergue) and big-headed Exeter (played by Jeff Morrow, who, in this flick, bears an uncanny resemblance to Robin Williams.) They all go to the planet Metaluna which is under attack by its arch-rival Zagon. Worth watching: REALLY big headed insect-like mutants with pincers for hands who are running (well, actually shuffling) amok. Exeter dies; Meacham and Adams turn out fine. What is this film's title? This Island Earth Island Alien Island in the Sun My Island Right or Wrong

8. (1957; Director: Dan Milner) This movie is so obscure it's not even listed in my "Leonard Maltin's 2010 Movie Guide." Would you be terrified by a walking snarling tree-trunk, who was definitely after you but never really hurried? Would you be amused? The plot: a South Seas prince is killed and his body is put in a tree trunk. After a nuclear test, the body, tree trunk and all, is re-animated, and goes on a rampage. They named him/it the Tobonga. You name the movie, please. Kill, Tobonga, Kill Helluva Tree From Hell It Came The Hell It Will

9. (1957; Director: Roger Corman) This film stars granite-jawed Paul Birch and always sexy, with-it Beverly Garland. The plot is relatively simple: Aliens come to earth because they need human blood to survive. They all wear sunglasses to disguise the fact they have no pupils or irises (which is pretty creepy - if you're a kid.) But watch out when they raise those shades! They shoot a radioactive death ray. Looks CAN kill! What is the name of this movie? Not of This Earth Not So Fast, E.T.! Not This Time, Alien! Bloodsucking Freaks

10. (1956; Director: Roger Corman) Extraterrestrial lands, hides in cave, and starts broadcasting feel-good messages to scientist Anderson (played by Lee Van Cleef) in order to get him to join in, well, taking over the world. The alien excretes (no other word for it) these little bat-like drones who stick humans in the back of the neck, turning them into automatons. Good scientist Peter Graves convinces Van Cleef to turn against the alien after Van Cleef's wife, played by Beverly Garland, goes to the cave to kill the monster with a rifle. She dies, Van Cleef dies, but the Earth is saved! Name this cheesy flick. It Conquered the World It Came, It Saw, It Conquered Next: the Earth Is That It?
