Tumblr favorite #2400: The things from outer space
My original tumblr post was here. This image is an illustration by Virgil Finlay for a novel Things Pass By by Murray Leinster that appeared in the Winter 1955 edition of Fantastic Story Magazine.

Tumblr favorite #2397: Bad movie II
My original tumblr post was here. This image is a promotional poster for the 1974 movie 2069: A Sex Odyssey. The plot summary at the IMDb begins with the following sentence: “Five sexy females from the planet Venus are sent to Earth to bring back sperm samples to their planet, which is dying out because there are no men left on it.” (You just can’t rely on men, I guess.) The image was first posted on tumblr by trash flavored trash and comes to us via Reginald Juice.
Tumblr favorite #2396: Bad movie I
My original tumblr post was here. This is putatively a promotional poster for a movie called Star Virgin. I’m not entirely persuaded that this was ever a real movie; if it is, it has fallen below the radar of even the IMDb. This image was first posted by Reginald Juice and comes to us via nerd-of-tits-and-wine.
