June 3, 1958 –
The 50s drive-in movie, The Fiend Without A Face, directed by Arthur Crabtree and starring Marshall Thompson, Kynaston Reeves, Michael Balfour, and Kim Parker, slithered into theatres on this date.
A publicity stunt went somewhat wrong in New York City. The Rialto Theater in Times Square featured a sidewalk promotion for the film–one of the prop brain creatures was displayed in a cage on the sidewalk outside the theater, wired for sound and motion. However, the crowd it attracted grew so large that they were snarling pedestrian and vehicle traffic, and the police demanded that it be removed.
