What the fuck was that?! Oh well, like the duck said, Invasion of the Saucer Men with
its none more iconic swollen headed aliens, is a classic 50s B movie ‘It’s big and
it’s round and it glows and gives off a noise like…’ it’s part scifi horror,
and part comedy ‘No, I’m not kidding’ so the film is loaded with Swiftian wit and
deft verbal biplay. ‘I don’t want to hold back the wheels of progress, or is that the
progress of a big wheel’ The fact this is a comedy also explains why the aliens’ main
weapon is... alcohol. As our guest duck Waddle will now explain
The alien use their fingernails, to inject pure alcohol, literally intoxicating their
victims. So no one believes the teens, who are attacked
at the local makeout point ]. ‘Take it easy Bobby boy/ Go man go’Dogging in the 1950s.
‘Hope we don’t hit Larkins bull on the way up’
Is that a euphemism? ‘You nearly stunted my growth’
I don’t know. Most 1950s scifi films are a stern warning to men about communism insinuating
its way into the US. ‘Makes you proud’ This one feels more like a stern warning to
girls about men plying them with drink and getting a bit handsy on the back seat. In
fact the kids’ prime motivation is to get through this and get married so they can finally
go all the way, ‘I expected to be frightened on my wedding night’ And of course, this
being a 50s film, when I say kids what I mean is people in their early 30s ‘Let’s hope
the next guy who runs into one is a 100% certified adult’ Like you. ‘We’ve heard enough
of that’ Now, funny or not and it’s mostly not, it’s hard to pick holes in a spoof
because, while it is ridiculous ‘Do you think it’s from another planet?’ it’s
meant to be ‘This is the silliest thing yet’ But then halfway through it seems to
forget about the comedy, ‘It’s gone’ a lead character is killed, although not even
his best friend seems to care, ‘I was just thinking how Joe’s gonna feel when I put
him on exhibition as the world’s first victim f a space man.’ An alien attack on a cow
is actually quite disturbing, why does the cow make horse noises? ‘Amazing’ Then
there’s the problem of the aliens themselves, their first encounter with humans is. Then
the army gets involved ‘Come out, you will not be harmed’ I hope they leave a note
on what’s left of the windscreen. ‘Conssarn hoodlums’ Now maybe this was an alien invasion‘I
know, you saw little green men’ on the other hand there’s five of them, their only weapon
is booze and I think there’s a pretty good case for self defence! ‘Those little monsters
are smarter than all of us put together’ That’s no great achievement, and please
don’t let it stop you from rounding them up and massacring them as they scream like
children ‘You don’t call killing one of those monsters a crime?’ I don’t know
about a crime but it’s certainly not funny. What did you think?
