 Fiend Without a Face
comment
A 1958 British Sci-Fi Horror film directed by Arthur Crabtree, based on the Weird Tales short story "The Thought-Monster" by Amelia Reynolds Long.At a base in Canada, the U.S. Air Force is conducting long-range radar tests to try and get a leg up on those pesky Russians. The people living near the base don't like how the aircraft spook their animals, and the churlish Mayor Hawkins (James Dyrenforth) is spreading nasty rumors about the possible side effects of radiation from the atomic reactor powering the American radar equipment.One night, people hear a mysterious thumping, schlurking noise, followed by a blood-curdling scream and the discovery of a corpse with a look of frozen horror on his face. More victims follow. This gives the locals, led by Hawkins, the ammo they need to bring grievances to the feet of base commander Colonel Butler (Stanley Maxted) and his second-in-command, Major Jeff Cummings (Marshall Thompson). Butler tasks Jeff with solving the mystery to restore good relations with the Canadians. He starts seeing Barbara Griselle (Kim Parker), the sister of the first victim. She works as a typist for a scientist named Professor Walgate (Kynaston Reeves).Eventually Hawkins himself falls victim to the unseen menace. "Something" leaps onto him and he dies after a prolonged struggle with an invisible enemy. An Air Force doctor autopsies the victims and discovers that each person has had their brain sucked clean out!Jeff theorizes that a "mental vampire" is at work. And when he discovers that Barbara's boss Professor Walgate has written several books about the "materialization of thought," he begins to suspect that the reclusive scientist is somehow behind it all.It was released on DVD as part of the Criterion Collection.

Canon Foreigner: Barbara Griselle. The closest thing Walgate has to an assistant in the short story is a housekeeper, Mrs. Jenson. Ditto the Air Force characters, who weren't present in "The Thought Monster."

comment
Splatter Horror: One of the first examples of this trope. Unlike other horror films of the time where the defeat of the monster is bloodless, here the monsters are outright hacked into pieces or blown to bits resulting in fountains of blood. The gore was so bad in fact that the film had to be given an X rating by the British Board of Film Censors.

But just because he's a jerk doesn't mean he isn't right, and he does make some good points about how the locals don't like the American planes constantly spooking their animals and disrupting their way of life.

Artistic License – Nuclear Physics: Walgate uses atomic power to amplify his own psychic powers, as well as give thoughts physical form, creating the "fiends." Not to mention that repeatedly subjecting himself to large doses of radiation in this fashion shouldn't create mentally projected monsters - it should just flat out give him the worst case of brain cancer in history. Jeff stops the "fiends" by blowing up the base's atomic reactor, without any fallout or other negative impact on the people or the environment.

Driven to Madness: This would appear to be what befalls Gibbons after he gets lost in the woods. He goes missing and then returns the following day a total mumbling idiot.

comment

Distinguished Gentleman's Pipe: Walgate smokes several. In fact, it's what gives him away as the guy who locks Jeff in the crypt when he accidentally leaves his very distinctive pipe behind.
