The logo of the School of Schlock podcast. A classic, round-bodied robot with a glass, lightbulb-like head stomps through flaming ruins over the words "School of Schlock."
The cover art for Space Mutiny. A helmeted heroic man fires a laser gun. Behind him in the stars is a menacing face. Below him is a scene of a ship exploding, and next to that is an older man in robes tightly hugging a younger woman. The text proclaims "There is nowhere to hide from the enemy within!"
The movie poster for Hobgoblins. A pair of big-eared, furry aliens sit squatly in a tiny spaceship capsule flying through outer space. Behind them are stars and a planet's surface.
The movie poster for They Came From Beyond Space. Some people in skin-tight and revealing bodysuits and wearing goofy-looking helmets with goggles shoot fiery blasts from their rayguns. In each blast is depicted a scene from the movie. Behind the people with their rayguns is a depiction of outer space, with glowing eyes super-imposed over it. The front figure with the raygun is a woman, the figures behind her appear to be men. I cannot stress enough how little this image has to do with the actual movie. None of this happens in the film. There are no skin-tight bodysuits. They don't wear weird helmets. This poster is so far removed from the film that it's absurd.
