Watched Fiend Without A Face on Saturday Wolfie, and enjoyed it quite a bit. Definitely has some of the most odd b movie creatures I have seen!. Thx for the great list. If the rest of films u mention are as good as FWAF then I will be quite happy.

Looking through my collection, these are some that haven't been mentioned yet:

The Giant Gila Monster (1959)
The Bat ('59)
The Phantom From 19,000 Leagues ('56)
The Screaming Skull ('58)
Indestructible Man ('56)
Attack of the Giant Leeches ('59)

Edit - Oh, and you can't forget The Blob ('58 w/ Steve McQueen).
