Alicia I love this movie so much

FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

MonsterVision99 The concept of a blood-sucking alien sounds cheesier than it is in this 1957 B-movie by Roger Corman, its quite classy when you compare it to most low budget Sci-fi films from the time, it doesn't show cheap giant monsters or anything like that (except for one short scene with a cheap little monster that felt really forced) its amusing because of how decently written it is.It has some good performances, likable characters and a good script, its campy, but works for the kind of movie it is. Roger Corman really was one of the best in his field, god knows how bad this could have been without him behind the camera, not only would it be bad, it would have been boring, and that's really the worst kind of B-picture there is.A decent sci-fi movie that's a little under budget at times but manages to be enjoyable. Also, the last shot of the movie works a hundred times better than the entirety of "It Follows."

poe-48833 Watching THE BEAST WITH A MILLION EYES, one can't help but feel for the star, Paul Birch: he's given very little to do and he does very little with what he's given... The fact that the "beast" of the title looks like an old-fashioned coffee pot doesn't help. NOT OF THIS EARTH, however, restores one's faith in Birch: he's excellent as the leader of a race of vampire aliens come to Earth in search of- you guessed it- Human blood. The cataract-white contacts he wears throughout are most effective, lending his character that Otherworldly aspect so necessary for an "alien" to come across as other than Human; even when he's wearing his sunglasses to hide said orbs, he's convincingly alien. Dick Miller makes a brief appearance as a vacuum-cleaner salesman, but it's the beautiful Beverly Garland who steals the show as Birch's Earthling nurse. NOT OF THIS EARTH is another of those genuinely FUN Creature Features from the '50's- The Golden Age of Science Fiction Films.

mark.waltz wild it certainly great to see Beverly garland back after facing the giant turn up like creature from it conquered the world, what she's missing here is the fun of that bizarre film released the previous year. She's gone from being cynical tough girl to a very friendly nurse, and here her only chances to emote is when she walks around almost in shock after a confrontation with the obvious creature from outer space, here seen in human form with sunglasses hiding eyes that's send men into shock and to their instant death.Certainly the ugly creature from It conquered the World needed some sort of follow-up, and here there is a miniature version of the same creature, one that like the little bit like creatures that flew out of that monsters behind. This one looks closer does the giant turn up then those weird looking flying creatures from the earlier film. It conquered the world thrives on it's delicious tongue in cheek and the cob sense of humor. However there really is very little to laugh at here, and when the monster does show up, it only makes a very brief appearance which is very disappointing considering what you would expect from Roger Corman. Garland still beautiful, and she does her best to add amusement with her lighthearted performance. The plot line is negligible, mostly talk and innocent bystanders being confronted by the aliens eyes after the sunglasses are removed, so any attempt at fright is more psychological then genuinely horrific.When Garland is eventually manipulated by her boss who happens to be a creature from outer space in human form, the tension does arise briefly. The scene where the little rubber flying thing does attack a victim is truly frightening. However there seems to be no explanation as to what happened to the cameo of this bizarre looking creature, and everything is wrapped up too quickly and neatly.the performances are all sincere, but the script is too chatty and truly has very little action to move it along. As result it is a slight for and ultimately that makes its a major disappointment.

David Michael O'Rorey (retromaster2000) I saw this movie back in 2004 on DVD-R it was a poor washed up transfer of the film. I really enjoyed it. Roger Corman did a great job on this one. This is probably my favorite out of his 5 50's Sci-Fi Efforts. It is about an alien from another planet that is dying he comes to earth in search of blood. He goes to a Doctor's office asking for a blood transfusion. He ends up Mezmorizing the Doctor & finally gets what he wants. He is hired a nurse greatly played by Beverly Garland an actress that is no stranger to 50's Sci-Fi. She was previously in Roger Corman's It Conquered The World from 1956 another 50's Sci-Fi Gem. Also one of my favorites. She was also in The Alligator People from 1959. Now Back to the film. Paul Birch plays the alien. He looks all but human. Until he takes off his sunglasses & white eyes are revealed. He kills people with his death ray eyes. I don't wanna give away much more. It is a true Classic of the genre. Also I just found out this is to be released on DVD on July 20, 2010 by Shout Factory along with Attack Of The Crab Monsters from 1957. Great pairing as back in 1957 Allied Artists released both films in theaters on a Double Bill. Not sure if the DVD will have any extras maybe just the trailers. Audio Commentary by Roger Corman on both would be nice but seems I don't know none of his other 50's Sci-Fi Films released on DVD had bonus features. Day The World Ended from 1955 was released on a DVD Double Feature from Lion's Gate Home Entertainemnet with The She-Creature from 1956 & neither had any bonus features not even the Trailers. I am sure since Shout! Factory is putting out this it will at least have The Trailer same with Crab Monsters. Anyway I give this film an 8!
