So I happen to be blessed with a job where I get an amazing amount of time for goofing off. Lately I have taken to poking my nose in to hulu to watch anime, movies, etc.

I recently started playing the Fallout series again at home and would love to watch some old 50s scifi movies, creature features, or atomic horror stuff.

Sadly my 31 years on this Earth means I have little or no experience with the 50s (well aside from that one time I was bar hopping and I met this strange British fellow in a phone booth but that is another story) So can anyone recommend so great 50s Scifi stuff on the web I could watch?

Currently I have watched all the MST3K stuff I could find, Earth vs. The Flying Saucers, and all the Godzilla movies on Crackle (not 50s but close enough)

He said he's already seen Earth vs. the Flying Saucers.

You should check out THEM! It's a classic as far as giant bug movies are concerned.

Day of the Triffids

Are you looking for good stuff? Or bad stuff? Or you don't care so long as it's B&W and pre-1960?

search for Leslie Nielson's filmography from the 50's-60's. Forbidden Planet was good for the Genre of that decade.

On a sad note, he was not intentionally funny back then. Just campy sci-fi.

I watched a ton of that shit as a kid. Good old TNT Monster Vision.

I second Them; it's a good one.

For other good ones, also see The Thing from Another World, The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms, and The Blob.

For so bad it's good, see The Giant Claw and Robot Monster.

Thank you for the suggestion folks This has given me a nice little list to queue up for work time viewing.

I would be pretty bad off and hating my job without Hulu to keep me company

The Day the Earth Stood Still. There is a version of that movie that doesn't have Keanu Reeves in it.
