I always appreciate a chance to see work from Powell that I hadn't previously seen (even if 淑珊 is <i>woefully absent</i>).<br /><br />Elements of “The Vampires from Venus” have a strong resemblance to <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0044121/" rel="nofollow"><i>The Thing from Another World</i></a>. The film was released in April of '51, and <i>Eerie Adventures</i> was dated for Winter of the same year. Which seems like a short turn-around, but <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0044121/" rel="nofollow"><i>The Thing</i></a> was of course (loosely) based upon Campbell's “Who Goes There?”, published in '38, and I presume that there were news about the movie well before its release.Daniel [oeconomist.com]https://www.blogger.com/profile/06763094285750736837noreply@blogger.com
