I Married a Monster from Outer Space: Passable enough
9 November 2018
This 1950's sci-fi horror immediatly looked like it would be seven shades of goofy. With a title and cover like that how could it possibly not be?

It tells the story of a woman who notices dramatic changes in her new husband and begins to have suspicions that he may not be himself anymore.

Less goofy than I immediatly thought it's essentially a tweeked Invasion of the Bodysnatchers (1956) but retains enough originality to have its own identity.

Fairly creepy in places and well paced it's a very competently made movie for its time though certainly would have benefitted from a bit of additional time.

For fans of that genre this is a perfectly passable piece of cinema but light on surprises.

The Good:

Well made for its time

Above par finale

The Bad:

Fairly flat in places

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

The creators were NOt animal lovers

Aliens are teetotal
