Fangoria And Mr. Jones

As my fifteen minutes of fame draws to a close, it was fantastic to find a mention of my site and my work (and some photos) on Mr.Jones in the latest issue of Fangoria.

Space Monsters

Saw this on the Classic Movie Monsters blog today - Seymour Simon's Space Monsters From Movies, TV, and Books.






















I owned this during the formative years, and I feel like I carried it around a lot.  Took it places.  Like a Pastor who carries around an old Bible.  A real buzzkill at family events I'm sure (me and the Pastor).

So I looked the author up and found that he has a site and discusses the book:
seymoursimon.com

Very cool.  Loved this book.  Constantly read it.  Drew the monsters in it.  And wanted the Martian from War of the Worlds as a pet.

Found a couple pages from it here.

Poison

Though I'm pretty sure I'd still eat these.

Encounters

Greys...
While there is no denying that these odd creatures are far and away the most famous — or infamous, as the case may be — alien entities to have allegedly visited our world, the fact remains that they represent only a small portion of the truly bizarre beings, which people claim to have come into contact with over the decades.

The E.T. That Never Was

From Bloody-Disgusting.com:

Spielberg based the story on the Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter, where a Kentucky family claimed that they had been terrorized by gremlin-like aliens. Spielberg had heard the story from UFOlogist J. Allen Hynek while doing research for Close Encounters.
In Spielberg’s original treatment for Watch the Skies, eleven malicious extraterrestrial scientists try to communicate with chickens, cows, and other livestock in an attempt to discover which of Earth’s animal species are sentient, before turning their unwelcome attentions on the human family and dissecting their farm animals.
Maybe it's a good thing this never happened.  I'd have a hard time respecting 11 humanoid "scientists" who were interrogating chickens.
