Destroying... Terrifying!"; "Filmed for wide screen in Terror-scope"; "Screaming terror!") starring Paul Birch, Lorna Thayer, Dona Cole, Bruce Whitmore (in the title role as the Beast; billed as "and the Beast"), and Leonard Tarver. In case you were wondering, the "beast" did not actually have a million eyes (or even close)! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Artist: Albert Kallis Important Added Info: Note that this poster is one of the most commonly censored 1950s posters! Apparently, the artwork image of sexy Lorna Thayer wearing a 3-piece nightie that showed much of her cleavage and midriff was just TOO much for most 1950s movie theaters, and many of them covered her body in some way, sometimes carefully painting a black garment over much of Thayer's body, thus not offending the 1956 people who saw this movie outside the theater! This particular poster was not censored in any way, which makes it even more desirable! What IS linenbacking? Learn More Overall Condition and Pre-Restoration Defects with Quality of Restoration: very good. The poster had a Canadian censor stamp in the top right corner (in the blue background). It had tiny paper loss at the crossfolds and some tiny creases and tiny bits of paper loss on parts of some foldlines. It had a horizontal tear in the center of the last "0" of "1,000,000" in the title and some pinholes in the corners. Overall, the poster was in good to very good condition prior to linenbacking. The poster was nicely backed, and displays well! Learn More about condition grades
