Here is a page from which you can link to 10 different fantastic films (some with alternate versions). I'm kind of like your TV GUIDE!
dr. terror's house of horrors 1965 98m
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvpZu6UQcJU (98m)
https://www.cda.pl/video/20278195 (93m. Polish subs)
5/4/2019 - Amicus anthology with Donald Sutherland, Christopher Lee, and Peter Cushing. Five stories, involving werewolf, vampire, voodoo, murderous plants, and a return from the dead, all with a very cool wrap. (A+) [The remastered Pinewood 98m print on YouTube is quite nice, and can also be found at My.Mail.ru with English hardsubs ..The German Anchor Bay 93m print on CDA is adequate]
the devil commands 1941 65m
https://www.cda.pl/video/313302281
5/4/2019 - Boris Karloff is a scientist who discovers that each person has unique brainwaves, and uses this to communicate with his dead wife. Creepy, quirky, intriguing. (A) [CDA.pl was English, excellent, no subs]
the brain 1962 83m
AKA vengeance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYT1uhYryzk
5/5/2019 - Curt Siodmak's DONOVAN'S BRAIN redone. This is crisp, mostly due to Freddie Francis' direction, but also a good cast led by Peter van Eyck and a bevy of beautiful women. I really like this film, and the offbeat ending. (A) [YouTube is the British version, no topless scene, and the picture is cropped but this is about as good as you'll find in public streaming]
them! 1954 92m
https://www.cda.pl/video/2457581e2 (Polish subs)
5/5/2019 - Giant mutated ants. Due to the casting, this beautiful film stands ahead of its competition, and the likes of James Arness, Fess Parker, James Whitmore, and the inimitable Edmund Gwenn act without overacting, so you care. (A+) [This CDA print is nice and smooth, whereas the other CDA print up at the time, and CafeHule print were wrong aspect, stretched]
green slime 1968 90m
https://archive.org/details/LaMelmaVerde1968
http://cafehulu.com/watch/oxQK1odn-the-green-slime.html
5/7/2019 - After saving the Earth from a rogue asteroid (ARMAGEDDON, anyone?), our heroes inadvertantly bring aliens to the space station. The slimers are annoying but deadly, and there is some decent screenplay here and there, as well as a handsome cast (B/B+) [It was difficult to find a decent stream, but Archive played well even if severely cropped top-bottom; if you can get CafeHulu to play, it's not cropped]
fiend without a face 1958 74m
https://archive.org/details/FiendWithoutAFace1958Vose (Spanish subs)
http://cafehulu.com/watch/gdV9L3GD-fiend-without-a-face.html
5/8/2019 - Genius decides to makes his thoughts physical, but they become ravenous for human brains and go on a rampage. When I first saw this years ago, I thought it was delightful and fresh, but unfortunately too many movies since then have spoiled its excesses, and today the strange script and dialogue seems silly rather than unique. Still, gotta love stop-motion oozing brains! (B+/A-) [Many English-language uploads are inferior quality, but Archive was very nice, no ghosting; again, if you can get CafeHulu to play, the picture is as good and no hardsubs (or soft subs), if that bothers you; 74m seems to be the most, I don't think a 77m print exists]

deadly mantis 1957 79m
https://ok.ru/video/196039281372
5/10/2019 - Nuke test wakes prehistoric carnivorous insect. This really had potential, and I liked the monster mock-ups, but they seem to have just run out of ideas and therefore drag out nearly every scene. (B) [Surprisingly, the non-MST3K, ie, original version, was difficult to find, this upload converted from an old AMC cable channel showing, but the encode is both blurry and skips]
godzilla vs. the thing 1964 90m/88m
AKA godzilla vs. mothra
http://www.metacafe.com/watch/8211745/godzilla_vs_the_thing/ (English dub, 88m)
https://archive.org/details/GODZILLAVS.THETHING1964EnglishDub (88m)
https://archive.org/details/GodzillaThingRedMenace (English dub, 90m)
https://archive.org/details/MOTHRAVS.GODZILLA1964JapaneseVersionHD (88m)
5/12/2019 - You might be surprised how the film focuses mainly on Mothra for most of the film, especially the promoters of the egg, but all in all this is a solid entry into the series. This Godzilla's personality is the clumsy/angry one. For example, he falls into a ditch and takes it out on a monastery for no reason, just because it's there. Godzilla also, for no apparent reason, is intent on destroying the egg (sure, it's allegory, but you have to know and add that). The American version is what I hurried inside to see on Saturday afternoons, WPIX-TV New York, and after school on the 4:30 Movie, WABC-TV New York, and this is adequate for most viewership. (A) [Metacafe plays well but is somewhat distorted and cropped; Archive English dub should play well with most routers; Red Menace reconstruction is 13 Gb and will probably need to be downloaded to view without buffering]

gamera vs. jiger 1970 82m
AKA gamera vs. monster x
https://archive.org/details/GameraVs.Jiger (English dub)
5/13/2019 - Jiger is awakened from forced hibernation by archaeologists, and Gamera is parasitically impregnated with Jiger's child during their first battle, and therefore some precocious kids take matters into their own hands to save Gamera and the world. Without judgment on the intended audience, this plays pretty well and isn't cynical, like most of today's films. (B/B+) [Archive is an excellent upload]
