An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Six-Sheet Movie Poster (6sh; measures 81" x 81" [206 x 206 cm]) (Learn More) G.O.G. (also released as "GOG, The Killer"), the 1954 Herbert L. Strock science fiction (sci-fi) robot monster horror thriller ("Its brain - an electronic miracle! It's body - chilled, invincible steel! Its purpose - to serve men! Then - suddenly - it became a Frankenstein!"; "Frankenstein of Steel"; "...and then, without warning, the machine became a Frankenstein of steel!"; "Thrill to miracles of science beyond imagination"; "...sound that can kill! ...light that melts steel!"; "...cold that brings immortality!"; "...men and women lighter than air!"; "...an electronic miracle brain!"; "...robots that think!"; "...a station in space!"; "and the incredible moment when The Machines Destroy The Makers!"; "Built to serve man... it could think a thousand times faster! Move a thousand times faster! Kill a thousand times faster ...Then suddenly it became a Frankenstein of steel!"; "Based on a story by Ivan Tors") starring Richard Egan, Constance Dowling, Herbert Marshall, John Wengraf, and Philip Van Zandt. Note that this might have been one of the worst titles ever, because absolutely nobody knew what "GOG" meant, and it certainly didn't attract anybody to the theaters! They tried to make things better be re-titling it "GOG, the Killer", but that really didn't convey the idea of a robot gone wild (and they did this after the posters were printed, so they sent ugly snipes that were glued over the original title!).
