A spaceship from Earth lands on a mysterious planet. When they depart something has hitchhiked on board. It begins stalking the crew… killing them one by one…

Sound familiar?

Nope, it’s “It! The Terror from Beyond Space” (1958) - 21 years before that other movie you were thinking about.

BECAUSE "ALIEN" DID NOT START THE "HAUNTED HOUSE IN OUTER SPACE" MOVIE TROPE.

OVERVIEW: 1958's "It! The Terror From Beyond Space" isn’t a particularly memorable early sci-fi horror movie, but this long-forgotten obscuro did pave the way for Ridley Scott's "Alien" and arguably provided a blueprint for its story in the process. Notable for little else, the '50s indie sci-fi "It! The Terror From Beyond Space" is strikingly similar to "Blade Runner" director Ridley Scott’s iconic 1979 horror sci-fi hit "Alien" in terms of both plot and premise. Winning critical acclaim upon release, "Alien" was seen by many viewers as an unholy fusion of earlier '70s blockbusters, "Jaws" and "Star Wars."

However, there’s an earlier, mostly forgotten sci-fi movie with a surprisingly similar premise which seems to have served as an uncredited inspiration for the creators, as outlined below. Some of the influential "Alien’s" similarities from "It! The Terror From Beyond Space" could reasonably be a case of parallel thinking, but some of them are simply too egregious to ignore."

Today's arrival is a haul from Amok Time Toys, full of Monstarz figures! Of course I had to grab their newest HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP figures, but I also finally pulled the trigger on their figures from IT! THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE and THE GREEN SLIME.

I am very glad I did, as all 4 figures have some excellent surprises. The detail is amazing and so is the articulation, far more complex than I would have anticipated at first glance.

The only real issues I have so far are that I wish the fishmen had elbow articulation and that the sea weed accessories on their arms were easily removable or rotated since it looks kinda silly if you don't pose their arms exactly in the direction that it "hangs."

Otherwise, I love these little weirdos and will definitely have to pick up some of the other figures Monstarz have done.
