Hi all... I was wondering if anyone has a copy of the old Ken digest of the Roger Corman flick, IT CONQUERED THE WORLD in sound. I would consider buying it or trading for the rare horror digest you are looking for. Please email me: BrianH9249@aol.com. Thanks!

I just picked up It Conquered the World from a used list from the The Reel Image a few months ago. As a feature it was not bad until the monster is really seen....as a cutdown...it really seems ridiculous...and lots of fun. The cutdown has Beverly's great line, "I'll see you in Hell first." and the finale. In the seven minute run time it all seems so surrealistic. I don't know as I'd part with it. The print is perfect...but what have you got to trade?

"He learned almost too late that man is a feeling creature, and because of it the greatest in the universe. He learned too late for himself that men have to find their own way, to make their own mistakes. There can't be any gift of perfection from outside ourselves. When men seek such perfection they find only death, fire, loss, disillusionment and the end of everything that's gone forward. Men have always sought an end to our misery but it can't be given, it has to be achieved. There is hope, but it has to come from inside, from Man himself.-Peter Graves' speech after the pointy monster and Lee Van Cleef have killed each other.

I'm assuming that didn't make it into the digest!

I think there's room for just one more film.....

Doug - I bet that speech isn't in their either -- that looks like it would take him about 100' of film to deliver!
Gary - I have too many titles I would trade to list ... perhaps it's easier if you send me your list of Wants. You can do it via email if that's better for you: BrianH9249@aol.com. Is your "IT CONQUERED THE WORLD" print in the original box? I'm only looking for a sound print in the original Ken box with the artwork...Thanks.
