@dokaos924, Thank you for your comment and we are glad you enjoyed our video. I agree with you, movies from the 50's had such an appeal to them. It's interesting that the movies from this era get remade on a fairly consistent basis. My belief for that is because those movies had to rely on delivering a much stronger story than just delivering special effects that too many of the newer movies depend on. Again thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated, and stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

Couldn't agree more !

@wkanost, Thank you for your comment. The Creature from the Black Lagoon is a fun movie in my opinion, and my wife, Mrs. Sci-Fi and More would agree with you that it is considered a comfort movie. The second film, Revenge of the Creature is pretty good as well. The third one, The Creature Walks Among us, thats a tough one. Let's just say it's an acquired taste. Not good, not bad, just different. Thank you again for your comment, it is a greatly appreciated. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

And don't forget Revenge Of The Creature. 😊😊😊

I've seen them all and I, too, loved the Monolith Monsters. But It, the Terror from Beyond Space freaked me out until Alien blew me away years later.

> The best truely alien life based on something other than the *Carbon Atom.*

Monolith Monsters has a great storyline.

Monolith Monsters was unique in that their menace was unintentional and they were not even sentient, but they still had to be fought as if the opposite was true.

One of my all time favourite movies. Can't imagine how many times I've watched it over the years!

You my friend have great taste 👌

It inspired Alien.

A couple of my favorites 🎉

@detroitdan8487, Thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. I'm glad you enjoyed our video, and I apologize for my late response to your comment. I had to be an "Adult" for a couple of months. I agree with you, "IT" is the 1950's Alien. I saw both those movies when I was a kid, but I saw them in reverse. I saw Alien first, then one good day on the local Detroit Creature Feature in the 70's I saw IT, and the kid version of me thought, I've seen this move...This is Alien. I have a draft I'm working one right now for an Alien vs IT side by side comparison video. I don't have a title yet, and my research is very limited at this point. But coming soon because this conversation has come up a few times throughout all the comments in our 1950's Sci-Fi movie videos we have done, so I thought it's time for a side by side comparison video. Anyway, thank you again for your comment it is greatly appreciated. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi on the way. Have a great day. Mike

@howardmandel7930 Thank you for your comment. I have to say out of all the comments I have received over all three of these videos, you are the first one to point that out. And you are not wrong. When I did the first one, I knew 10 was going to be very light. But the idea with the first one was to just gauge interest, so I went with the top of mind favorites, or more specifically, titles that are easily recognizable. I had no empirical information to go on when generating the list, so it comes across as more of a personal opinion. After the first one, the comments came in with some really great suggestions and then I built the lists for the next two videos with the viewer and subscriber suggestions in mind. I totaled up how many times each individual movie were mentioned and based the lists on those numbers. I'm glad you enjoyed our video, and thank you for watching. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi on the way. Have a great day. Mike

You are so right-the narrator gives too much creedence to some pretty forgettable and low-quality movies.

He likes to describe in detail a lot of the rich scenes@@BarryHart-xo1oy

Yes, memories of the early 1970s, Channel 8 WQAD TV, Moline Illinois, Saturday Night Creature Feature.

@@gmansard641 Oh Yes...when we visited my grandparents in Illinois, I'd always scope out the late Friday/Saturday night local monster movie shows. I seem to remember "Dimension 13"? from Chicago? Hazy but good memories.

That is so cool , I have a small collection for the moment , but have a huge DVD collection (2,500) and an even bigger collection on VHS about 10,000 tapes , the majority are in storage in my Pops house 😊

​@@Robert-qm5sovery cool.

@@philokevetch8691 thanks , I'm a big fan of sci-fi horror films from the 1930s thru 1990s, my childhood influences were my Grandfather and my parents 👍👍

​@@Robert-qm5soI also kept half my collection, of sci-fi/horror movies I 'had' on VHS, at my family's house. After my Dad died, and my Mom went into a home, my brother sold the house, without giving me, enough time, to extract my films (show's, and whatnot), and I lost them. I also had thousands of videos. Don't let that happen, to you (God forbid).

@@rogerrendzak8055 Wow, so sorry to know that 😔 I feel for you, my Pop and I have a great relationship, he loves his home and wants me to keep it after he's gone, so he has given me the house deeds and made me promise him to never sell the house and keep it for the future family, so in a sense I'm safe but thank you kindly for the heads up 👌

Really liked seeing The Monster that Challenged the World. They we had a fit cause they killed it with guns.

As I do more of these videos maybe I'll be able to uncover some additional films you haven't seen. Anyway, thank you again for your comment, always great to hear from you, and stay tuned there is more Sci-Fi to come. Mike

@ThomasWLalor, Thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. We are glad you enjoyed our video. I agree with you, these movies, even today are a great diversion. I have always felt like the best part of the 50's and 60's movies were the fact that the special effects were not what they are today, forcing a greater emphasis on a much stronger story. I've always appreciated that from all of these movies. Not all of them from this era have compelling stories, but a lot do. And thank you so much for subscribing. Once we get through the holidays, we will be right back to creating videos with more regularity, but until then, stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. We hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season. Have a great Galactic day, and Merry Christmas. Mike

@55Quirll, Happy to give you an honorable mention. You had a great idea and a meaningful contribution to the video. It was going in. Not sure if you watched until the end credits, but I also put your UKposts name in the credits with our crew as a channel contributor. I’m glad you enjoyed the video, I will definitely check out Journey to the beginning, to my knowledge I have never seen that movie. On a side note, we are working on launching a podcast down the road, you seem very knowledgeable and into science fiction. If you would like to on the podcast when we launch you are more than welcome. Other than that, thank you for your comment, and very glad you enjoyed our video. Stay tuned, more sci-fi to come.

@@BarryHart-xo1oy You’re kidding me! 😉

> And the then hot leading star; *Cesar Romero!* Why do I remember that? As a kid, watching it on tv, the only thing important to me in the movie was finding the crashed *V-2* rocket.

@@mydogbrian4814 You mean the rocket nobody seems to be much interested in anymore once the ROCKCLIMBING! begins? 🤣

@fredobot5298, Thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. We hope you enjoyed our video. I included the Maze, because when I was making the list for this video, The Maze, along with the other movies that were represented in the video, came up a number of times in the comments. So based on the number of times each movie was mentioned in the comments, thats how they fell in the ranking. It's very difficult to respond to all the comments just due to the shear volume of comments. So I thought, we can make the comments have some real weight by taking the viewer and subscriber comments and suggestions, and preparing a video based on what the viewers suggestions were. For people that did comment that I couldn't respond to, I wanted them to feel heard. Again, we hope you enjoyed our video, and thank you again for your comment. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi on the way. Have a great day. Mike

@jamesabernethy7896, Thank you so much for your comment. I agree with you, 20 million miles to earth is an amazing movie. I put this list together based on the movies that commonly came up in the comments of the first two 1950’s sci-fi videos we did, so based on that count, that’s why 20 million miles fell where it did. But from a personal point of view, based on the movies I put in the video, 20 million miles would have been number one. Again, thank you so much for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. Glad you enjoyed the video, and stay tuned, more sci-fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

@robertjason6885, Thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. I am actually a huge life-long fan of all things Sci-Fi, and I try to put in the proper time to make a good informative script, and I actually practice my delivery since radio or TV personality was never part of my professional resume. And since I'm a huge fan, and the genre brings me so much entertainment, I want to convey that level of excitement as I narrate the videos. I actually enjoy talking about all these movies, or on a smaller degree, the movies or shows I talk about in the "Short" videos I've done. But there is always room for improvement, and the goal is to keep making these videos, but make each one better than the other. Again, your comment is greatly appreciated. Thank you for that. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

@mostlynew, Thank you for your comment and we are glad you enjoyed our video. This era of Sci-Fi movies is, and continues to be very influential and there are so many great ones out there to choose from. And for me, doing videos like this is fun and takes me on a nostalgic journey, but I always feel there could be so many more movies I could include, That's probably why I have done three 1950's videos, and I'm sure a forth one is in our future. Anyway, thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated and stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi to come. Have a great day. Mike

@randyflynn6402, Thank you for your comment. The old Monster Movies, are just special and just resonate. I was toying around with the idea of exploring the old monster movies a little closer with stand alone videos highlighting either the monster itself, or just one movie that features a specific monster. And, we do live in an interesting time with fresh movies continuing the classic monsters. There is a new Godzilla/Kong movie coming out in the American Monsterverse series, along with the Monarch series on Apple TV, which seems to be a direct sequel to the 2014 Godzilla movie that took place in San Francisco. And Japan has the new "Godzilla: Minus One" movie coming out soon. That Minus One movie looks fantastic. Lately, I've been wanted to check out Ishiro Honda's two 1950's Sci-Fi films, The Mysterians, and Battle in Outer Space back to back. Today might be a good day. It's Halloween, and it's raining. Perfect movie day. Thank you again for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. And, I'm glad you enjoyed all three of our 1950's Sci-Fi videos. Stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi on the way. Have a great day. Mike

Invisible Invaders has become a favorite of mine online. It's funny in all the right ways, and fairly clear in its influence on George Romero's Night Of The Living Dead.

Its original title is “Quatermass and the Pit”. I’ve watched all the surviving Quatermass videos and they are all outstanding.

Five Million Years to Earth. Love it. Great film...

love the film but the origanel 1958 8 part bbc tv show filmed live gives more time to tell the story and has more ergancey if you haven't seen it i would recomend it

@@evilpixie96 The one I have of “Quatermass and the Pit” from 1958 only has six parts. The Halfmen, The Ghosts, Imps and Demons, The Enchanted, The Wild Hunt and Hob.

@geoffreylee5199, Thank you for your comment, we hope you enjoyed our video. For me we had WKBD TV50 out of Detroit and they would broadcast a lot of these movies on Saturday afternoon. Late at night on Saturday they would broadcast a lot of the 50's horror films. I think it was called Chiller Theater. Not sure on that one, it was a long time ago. Speaking of Toronto, I will say that I miss the Maple Leafs old Maple Leaf Gardens, and the Red Wings old Olympia Stadium, and then later Joe Louis Arena. When we were younger, my friends and I would drive across the border often to watch the leafs and the wings at Maple Leaf Gardens. Good times back then.

What ?? The "Maze" ? listen buddy, I maybe 31 years old , but I've got to say that flicks like these need to be recognized, I mean what a great horror mystery, I love it 👍👍

@@Robert-qm5so The Maze really needs to be seen in 3D to be fully appreciated. It's a pity 3D TV never caught on. If the 50s classics had been made available the system might not have become obsolete quite so quickly. I wish I'd bought two when I had the chance.

@@ironjade I also have it on DVD and on a beautiful colorful VHS case , which is part of my awesome movie collection 👌

@ironjade, Thank you for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. As far as I know, I have never had an opportunity to see the Maze in 3D. There were a number of 1950's movies that were broadcast on TV in the 70's in 3D, and you had to have the blue and red lens 3D glasses to properly appreciate the film on TV. The creature from the Black Lagoon is the one that comes to mind as being the one film that was consistently aired on TV in 3D. And it has been a number of years, but I don't really think I've ever seen the Maze in 3D. But now I want too. Kronos, was interesting. It is a great movie, no doubt there. It's concept and idea were really fascinating to me when I first saw it. But I have to agree with you, the animated legs are very unconvincing. But still a great movie. Thank you again for your comment, it is greatly appreciated. And stay tuned, there is more Sci-Fi on the way. Have a great day. Mike

@@scifiandmore It's unfortunate that most people still think that red/cyan anaglyphs are the only way to view 3D. The 50s classics and, indeed, most other 3D movies were originally meant to be seen using Polaroid glasses, a vastly superior format. Although anaglyphs work OK with monochrome movies, they're not much use with color movies. Modern passive 3D TVs also used a form of polarisation.

@mrfarnz, Thank you so much for you comment, it is greatly appreciated. And I'm glad you enjoyed our videos. The first one I did is the one I thought was the most challenging just because its the first in the series and there were so many great movies from that era that there was no way to get them all into one. But for the second and third ones I basically used all the comments to compile the lists for the second and third video. It's a challenge to respond to all the comments, but there were so many great ideas and suggestions that I looked at what movie suggestion had the most comments, then the second most comments, and built my lists using that formula. I wanted to make the comments of the viewers and subscribers have input as to the direction of part two and part three. Do not fear, more videos like this, and some stand alone movie videos are coming soon. Thank you again for your comment, and stay tuned, more sci-fi is on the way. Have a great day. Mike

Frankenstein with an extra e? 😅

@@peterolbrisch8970 Well, the monster needed parts.

Someone had to say it. Like you I appreciate the effort put in to promote these movies, but The Lost Continent is just terrible. The effects and fake sets (camouflaged with tinted film stock) are so poor that they are more likely to kill off the genre than drive it onwards into 'groundbreaking' territory. I realise there is room for opinion and subjectivity, but the descriptions used in the accompanying narration are hyperbole or just plain wrong.

Nice retort.@@Laceykat66

Of course, it is IT, one of the films highlighted in this video. The film that had the most influence on ALIEN, but done for about one 90'th the budget (approx.).

Nice to see some love for WPIX, but let's not forget WNEW channel 5, which gave us Creature Feature and most of all WOR channel 9, which gave us The Million Dollar Move so we could OD on these movies 7 days a week, as well as Super Adventure Theatre.
