For true die-hard lovers of the genre, we present another awkward Corman comedy, the 1961 movie, "Creature From The Haunted Sea," and it's a scene where their boat is approached & they want to seem casual, so they tell Mary-Belle to sing, & she sings, and she sings, & she sings, but, it's all worth it to hear her sing one of the last lines, "Creature From The Haunted Sea." You'll see! Music by none other than Fred Katz.

Here's yet another movie that Ronald Stein did the music for. "Attack Of The 50 Ft. Woman" was made in 1958 and was one of Ron's earlier efforts. This song plays in the background in a couple of scenes. Here's a version with dialogue, & one straight instrumental as it would have been on a soundtrack LP. Another Great movie everyone should see at least once!! Rent It, It comes with official free secondhand smoke!

MESA OF LOST WOMEN - Hoyt S. Curtin - "The Evil Dance" (1953)
Wow, 1953, what to do, what to do? Make a movie. "Mesa Of Lost Women" sounds like a good idea! Yeah, let's do it, and we'll get Hoyt S. Curtin to do the music, we need some cool jazzy music for the "evil dance" number! Wow, 1953, what you could get away with! Hoyt S. Curtin went on to have a killer resume. A mere 19 years later or so, he'd be doing the music for "Josie & The Pussycats In Outer Space," "Goober And The Ghost Chase," "Tabitha And Adam And The Clown Family," "Partridge Family 2200 A.D.," "KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park" & so much more, the entire list is unbelievable, so if this song has cartoon elements, it was a mere blueprint for his future!!

THE BLOB - The Five Blobs (Bernie Nee) - "The Blob" (1958)
Well, just in case you've all been livng under a rock or somewhere else even more obscure than that for the last 50 years, then you are very familiar with the ultimate 1958 classic, "The Blob." Sung by one guy, Bernie Nee, overdubbed to get that special sound, there's really nothing else to say about this Bacharach/David song, except, listen to it one more time, and bask in the wonder of that which is The Five Blobs doing the music from the beginning credits of "The Blob." Now somehow manage to go on with your life. One More Time!!!! Rent it or Buy it, just don't touch it!!
