Was a Zombie for the FBI I Movie Review

Aliens who look just like old-fashioned gangsters land near Pleasantville, USA, and make a deal with a couple of human criminals to rule the world. Their extraterrestrial super-science hypnotizes victims “clinically in what is known as a zomboid state,” while just-the-facts-ma'am federal agents combat the un-American menace and their badly animated reptile monster. Black-and-white production by Memphis State University students is a dry, deadpan recreation of McCarthy-era sci-fi quickies, so close to the real thing that the mirth turns to tedium under an interminable running time. Still, some kind of achievement.
