82. B-Notes - Beast With A Million Eyes (1955) Now walking there was one more fair A slight girl, lilypale; And she had unseencompany To make the spirit quail— Nathaniel Parker Willis (1806–1867). http://www.jabootu.com/acolytes/bnotes/beastwith.htm

Welcome to a Proud Annex of "The Eyes Man Commeth," or... The Beast with a Million Eyes (1955) Directed by David Kramarsky, Lou Place, and Roger Corman (uncredited) Written by Tom Filer Information at the IMDB US.IMDB Now walking there was one more fair A slight girl, lily-pale; And she had unseen company To make the spirit quail— Nathaniel Parker Willis (1806–1867) Originally, this movie was going to be called The Unseen . There’s irony in that title for two reasons. First, unless you live in one of the rare broadcast markets that has a copy of this property, you’re not likely to see it. The second reason regards eleventh hour changes to the product, but that’s another story Contents The Plot It's a Normal Life ... The Bottom Line The Plot It's a Normal Life We open with a prologue. While the Earth drifts in space (well, among some clouds), an alien (voice of Bruce Whitmore) tells the audience he needs this world. A space ship flies over the Earth and water ripples are superimposed over the shot. (Hereafter, we'll be calling this effect the Cosmic Water Ripples.) The alien announces that he's coming to our world. After explaining that he lives on hate, he begins to describe the details of his plan, and for visual aids he shows us footage from later in the move. He says he'll begin with the unthinking, using animals and humans with weak wills as his eyes and ears. (Nowadays, he'd also have a legion of MTV viewers at his disposal.) A single eyeball superimposed into the shot visits the superimposed Cosmic Water Ripples. (We'd refer to this as the Cosmic Sammy Davis Jr. Prosthetic, but that might make the Sandy Duncan fans feel left out, so we won't be doing that.) He finishes his presentation by bridging his secondary use of senses to what people will call him: The Beast with a Million Eyes! Thanks, Mr. Alien. It's not as impressive as Iago at the beginning of

Poe CollectionIndex of Correspondents Edgar Allan Poe: An Inventory of His Collection at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center Descriptive Summary Creator: Poe, Edgar Allan, 1809-1849 Title: Edgar Allan Poe Collection Dates: 1766-1974, (bulk 1829-1850) Abstract: The Poe Collection contains a few handwritten works and about 70 letters written by Poe, while the bulk of the collection consists of correspondence and works about him. Quantity: 11 boxes (4.58 linear feet), 3 galley folders, 4 oversize boxes, and 9 oversize folders Identification: Repository: Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin Biographical Sketch Edgar Poe was born in Boston, January 19, 1809, the second child of Eliza Arnold Poe, a well-known actress, and David Poe, Jr., also an actor. Early in 1810 David Poe abandoned his family; nothing is known of his fate. Later that same year Eliza gave birth to her third child, Rosalie. By the summer of 1811 Eliza's health was failing and she died on December 8, 1811, in Richmond, Virginia, at the age of 24. The eldest son went to live with the Poe family in Baltimore, the infant daughter went to a Richmond family named MacKenzie, and Edgar was taken in by John and Frances (Fannie) Allan. John Allan, a partner in the trading firm The House of Ellis and Allan, promised to provide Edgar with a liberal education and he certainly provided the boy with a standard of living superior to the one to which he had been accustomed. The House of Ellis and Allan was prospering so well that in 1815 they decided to open an office in London. Six-and-a-half-year-old Edgar accompanied John and Fannie to England where he attended several boarding schools. After a slow beginning, the London offices seemed to be doing well. However, in 1819 the bottom fell out of the tobacco market, the business was ruined, and the family returned to Virginia in 1820.
