Bigger and picture of more.....

Thank you but that was too much of a clue, I saw it immediately.

Need I say more?


Nope. I fully expected you to get it at this point or the larger photo.

Now, shall we see if anyone else does :?:

Gort's genre in life.


Genre, definition: a category of artistic composition, as in music or literature, characterized by similarities in form, style, or subject matter.
I am stumped by Murph also. Gort does not sing or speak. His job is to protect citizens of an interplanetary confederation against all aggression by destroying any aggressors. Just what does that have to do with music, literature or a skull from a warthog?

Consider the "subject matter" of science fiction , a genre among movies, which are literary "artistic compositions" .

Your using "interplanetary," above, would not be forbidden in this consideration.
Not only are there monsters of the Id, in science fiction movies, there are islands, too, where once they are left behind, can spell danger for travelers and visitors alike.

It's disturbing. I would say t's more likely the basement than the attic.

That makes sense, especially considering the color palette involved overall.

Murph,
The red thing is from Forbidden Planet and I think I have seen the other "thing" but don't remember where.
Maybe under my bed.

The other creature is from "This Island Earth". I think it's called a "Mutant" and organic robot used by the Metalunans. Near the end of the film it went after Faith Domergue as they were trying to escape. It did succeed in mortally wounding Exeter but he got Rex Reason and Faith back to earth before he died and augured the space ship into the ocean. The MST 3000 Movie uses and edited version of "This Island Earth" as the film being lampooned. BTW, the professor from Gilligan's Island is also briefly in the film. It's not the worst 50's sci fi flick but it's no "Forbidden Planet" either.

Thanks, Chuck. I do remember it now.
Also remember that the book was much better than the movie.
