Kathleen Hughes, the 1950s starlet who released the scream... heard ’round the world.... in the sci-fi flick It Came From Outer Space, died this week.... She was 96.
IT CAME FROM OUTER SPACE.....in 3-D, was my first Science Fiction Film Viewing......My grandmother, Flora, in reponse to my having pled with her to 'take me to the 3-D movie, playing at 'The Grand', across the street from Becker's, in Huntsville, sat through the Film with me....the first film that she had viewed on a big screen in a couple of decades....Both of us experienced 'troubled sleep', that evening......as I crawled into bed with her and my grandfather, Rufus....who laughed at our 'terror'.......He'd, probably, not been to a 'movie house' in 30 years! Nevertheless, i became 'hooked' on Sci-Fi movies...from then...till Now......
