MONSTER MASHUPS #43

Here's a link to today's review of the 1968 compilation-of-shorts THE LEMON GROVE KIDS MEET THE MONSTERS.



This low-budget curio just barely makes it into my mashup-category. One of the shorts includes both a mummy and a rampaging gorilla, but as things turn out, they're both actors in costumes, which removes them from consideration.

The only reason that this LEMON qualifies depends on one's willingness to view aliens as "monsters." The middle short includes a "Grasshopper Man" and a "Vampire Lady" who are apparently both from outer space according to the short's title, but who don't look like they belong to the same species, in contrast to almost every other alien-invasion flick ever made.

So, purely based on the suggestion that two breeds of aliens come calling on Earth, I give LEMON "mashup status."
