Default Horror top trumps competition!

Hi all

I love horror top trumps from the late 70s/early 80s and I'm sure some of you do too.

They are (in)famous for most of the cards being rip-offs of movie/tv monsters and for being copied from photos and stills.

So I'm setting up this competition/bit of fun where I'll post a picture of each card and I'll ask you if you can identify which film, tv series or otherwise they are taken from and, even better, if you can post the picture they were taken from.
Each time it is identified I will post the next picture.

Scoring will be -
1 point for the first person to correctly identify the card
3 points for posting the photo that inspired it

The prize for the winner will be a DVD of SHo Kosugi's Pray for Death (the recent supposedly uncut version with inserts from Bonzai Media).

Below are the most obvious examples as they are in the name - The Incredible Melting Man and Creature From The Black Lagoon.

Nope.

But 60s sci-fi is the right area...

The Whip and The Alien sounds like a good film.

If you think early 60s you may have 'more luck' . . .
