Night of the Blood Beast (1958)

** (out of 4)

An astronaut crash lands on Earth, killing him instantly. Hours later he comes back to life with baby aliens growing inside of him. There's also an overgrown parrot looking alien killing people. Roger Corman served as Executive Producer so with that in mind you should know what to expect. The film has a really low budget but this adds to some of the charm. The performances are pretty bad but again, this adds some brief laughs. The direction is rather nice, which makes up for the low budget but the monster is quite funny looking. Roger's brother, Gene, wrote the story and screenplay.
