Endless Ends

Okay. So, There is this old movie. Not too old. It's color. A horror movie.

I remember little except the monster sucked the bones out of its victims, leaving the body, errr, sack(?) empty. As I recall, the action was set in a city and the monster looked sort of like a vacuum cleaner.

Ring any bells, anyone?

It sounds like @Lord Pmann ‘s nightmare—getting his bone sucked out by a vacuum cleaner and just leaving his sack.

Or it could be Island of Terror, I’m not sure.

Enny, I think you are carrying the horror element a bit too far when you include in your birthday month a martini that has leeches mixed in it !! Well, to each their own, I guess. Anyway, have a happy birthday when that day occurs this month!

You might even watch this as you enjoy another one of those martinis:

I watched the trailer and I think this might be the one!

*squeal of excitement*

For some reason I thought it was in a city, but this is one of those things I saw on Saturday reruns as a child so my memory is hazy.

Scared the bejesus out of me though.


The vacuum was suspect for months!

Ooooh. I don't think I've seen this . . . .

Oh, and a basket of gluten free treats arrived today. Mostly in the nature of dark chocolate.

My friends know me so well.

Next up, Island of Terror (1966).

I hope this is the right one!

*bounces*

Dark chocolate is the best.

Island of Terror was -

Even better than expected!!~

1) Research gone wrong.
2) Hammer like production.
3) Bone-sucking vacuum creatures.
4) Reproduction by binary fission.
5) Peter Cushing!
6) Questionable science.

What more could one want?

Notes:

-Until panic set in the people were surprisingly open minded and willing to work together. That would never happen in real life.
-The female lead was remarkably helpless. Even more useless than usual. Honestly, I would have fed her to the silicates.

I mean, I, too, would be pretty useless, but it's a bad look for the feminine gender.

You had me at “bone-sucking vacuum creatures”!

If I understand you correctly - and it's entirely possible I do not as I never catch these things correctly the first time -

Not that kind of, errr, bone.
