[1] The Eye Creatures, an Azalea Pictures film, was directed by B-movie director/producer/auteur Larry Buchanan and starred John Ashley.
Stan and his girlfriend Susan Rogers later accidentally hit one of the multi-eyed, lumpy greyish-white aliens from the ship with his car, so they drive off to call the police.
Meanwhile, one of two drunken drifters new in town comes across the dead creature and decides to put it on exhibition as part of his latest get-rich-quick scheme.
When he returns to the site after excitedly rushing home to tell his buddy Mike, other aliens arrive, scaring him and causing a deadly heart attack.
When the police finally investigate, they assume that Stan has run over the drifter and arrest the young man, refusing to believe his crazy story.
Easily escaping from the police, Stan and Susan meet up with the dead drifter's friend Mike and the three of them attempt to prove the alien danger to the community.
Mike is cornered and attacked by the angry creatures, but Stan and Susan manage to flee and accidentally discover the monsters explode when exposed to bright light.
Unfortunately, after the autopsy shows that the earlier victim died from an alcohol-induced heart attack and that Stan had not killed him, the police want nothing more to do with him and refuse to help.
[11] Film-mocking television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 featured the oddly-titled print of the film, Attack of the The Eye Creatures, in a 1992 season 4 episode.
In the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode featuring this film, Joel Robinson sarcastically suggested that "some eye creatures […] are born with tight acrylic wool-blend turtleneck sweaters from Chess King".
Crow T. Robot also mocked, "If you're ever in a fight with an eye creature, keep in mind that his head is simply draped casually over his shoulders and should be no trouble to knock off".
Crow even pointed out a shot featuring a common monster-film goof: "The eye creatures […] were also unfortunate enough to have evolved with heavy-duty zippers running up their backs".
