Someone recently made a comment on one of my posts about obscure movies, and for some reason, it sparked a memory about a song some friends and I used to play in one of my old bands. Actually it was my first band... I’ve played music of some sort since I was a young girl, but I didn’t join my first band until my early twenties.
I snagged these photos from google images
My buddy Jim wrote this song about this movie called “Attack of the Beast Creatures”. One of our friends had purchased a VHS tape of the movie at a gas station for like $2 bucks and we all got a kick out of it for some reason. It’s a cheesy, “B horror” movie, but it’s kind of awesome in its own way ;)
Here are his lyrics:
Stranded on an island and we’re dropping off like flies
Gotta stick together because in the shadows hide!...
Beast Creatures... Beast Creatures
It’s not safe to wander off alone
Acid rivers eat the flesh
Clean from your bones!
Hear the faint footsteps, something’s coming near
See the glowing eyes and you’re paralyzed with fear!
I’m running for the beach and I pray someone is there
I’m the only one alive
I’m alone and I’m so scared!
I never imagined that this would be my fate
Now I’m lost they’re all around
And there is no escape!
I feel the skin torn from my bones
I can’t wake from this dream
My vision washes red with blood
And all I hear are screams!
Beast Creatures...Beast Creatures
Anyway, we used to have a lot of fun playing this song and I guess nostalgia got the best of me tonight. It’s a fun memory for me and I figured there was no harm in sharing :)
Thanks for checking it out! :)
