Caught this one on TCM last night and really enjoyed it.
Yes it's hokey, it's campy, and the special effects are horrible.
OTOH the acting over-all is not half-bad, the actors (especially the cops) show some great body language and facial expressions, and the characters have some hilarious laugh-out-loud lines poking fun at the social mores of the time.
High art it ain't, but accept it for what it is. I rate it 6/10. -

The giant hand in the beginning actually looked quite realistic. I wonder why the aliens hands looked more natural and Nancy's giant hands looked so fake.

Hard not to love it - although theres nothing "good" about it as it were. Hilarious film that poses a similar kind of dilemma when it comes to actually rating it as Plan 9 & Glen Or Glenda do - on one hand pitifully inept, but on the other a bunch of fun. Eventually rated it 3/10, but that dont really mean sh-t.

I loved it too though I have to disagree with the transparent part since it wasn't just the alien that was transparent, but Nancy too when she becomes a giant.

Crappy movie ,yes. But a fun crappy movie. I would rather watch this than some of the awful remakes or recent attempts at sci-fi or horror movies that have much higher budgets but without the fun of these old films.
