Night Of The Blood Beast. 1958.
Michael Emmet is the sole astronaut sent to space and then returns and crash lands and is declared legally dead. But after the air base is sealed and tests are done shows that something is growing inside him.
Roger Corman must have had some incline that this was never meant to be the best film made even though he probably had a good time making it and never realised that it would be the inspiration for another alien film 20 years later. We got 7 actors in a film, one is in a space alien outfit that looks well cheap as the movie budget is, but does give off the claustrophobic vibe. Maybe at the time it could have been taken as a serious film but now dialogue looks cheesey and daft especially with the alien finding it's voice and speaking calmly and non menacing. To be fair I actually enjoyed this one.
