Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) again bit I prefer the 70s remake.,
Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957) The first so bad it is good movie.
On the Beach (1959)
Destination Moon (1950)
Some of my favorites on here. Plan 9 is great to watch back to back with Ed Wood.
1953 War of the Worlds was one of my favorite movies as a kid. Those ships were super cool. FX hold up really well.
Barbarella is over the top, but still fun to watch... and credited with the band Duran Duran getting it's name. :)
1960 Time Machine was another one of my absolute favs as a kid... best Time Machine adaptation IMHO.
