The Eye Creatures! (for OSE)

Inspired by Larry Buchanan’s awful The Eye Creatures, which was a rip off of the less-than-good Invasion of the Saucer Men, which was inspired by Paul W. Fairman’s short story “The Cosmic Frame”, today for Old-School Essentials I present a grade-B alien menace.

Hailing from some distant space void or strange dimension, the bizarre eye creatures travel in saucer-shaped flying vehicles of unfathomable construction and operation. Highly intelligent and dispassionate, these alien beings view other forms of life as inferior and suitable for a wide range of horrifying experiments. Bright light is fatal to them.
