GHOST OF DRAGSTRIP HOLLOW - The Renegades (1959)
They just kept crankin' them out, & it's amazing how good each & every one of the songs in this movie really are. "Ghost Train" by The Renegades, you tell me what kicked more butt than this song written by Nick Venet in 1959?? Nothing, that's what!!! It's like a weird parallel universe, great music, annoying movie! Rent it!
THE ATOMIC SUBMARINE - Alexander Laszlo - "Opening Credits" (1959)
Wow, Alexander Laszlo did the music for some of the major cool titles of the 50's, working with the world's best director, Bernard Kowalski on "Attack Of The Giant Leeches" and "Night Of The Blood Beast," not to mention 15 episodes of "Rocky Jones, Space Ranger" and more. "The Atomic Submarine" soundtrack was touted as "ELECTRO-SONIC" music, so relax, do something futuristic & enjoy!!

FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER - Bob Crewe - "Scramble All Jets" (1965)
"Scramble All Jets" is just what it sounds like it should be, another rockin' Bob Crewe number only with the sound of jets taking off. You aliens better watch out this time cause we're bringing out the big guns. More great music from "Frankenstein Meets The Space Monster!

CREATURE FROM THE HAUNTED SEA - Betsy Moreland - "Creature From The Haunted Sea" (1961)
Betsy Moreland
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.

ATTACK OF THE 50 FOOT WOMAN - Ron Stein - "50 Foot Rock(and Roll)" (1958)
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!
