I was just watching "The Day It Came To Earth," a late-70's horror comedy which is a 50's period story, sort of, well, a "50's college kids vs. reanimated gangster corpse" thing. I hated it the first time I saw it, but then gradually grew to really like it. A piece of crap but that's part of its charm, I guess.
