Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter (1957)
Jayne stars with Tony Randall, Betsy Drake, Joan Blondell and husband Mickey Hargitay in this witty send-up of Hollywood and television that's 'explosive with laughter' (Hollywood Reporter).

Known as 'the girl with the kissable lips,' Rita agrees on one condition - that Rock pretend to be her lover so she can make her boyfriend (Hargitay) jealous. It's just the first of many obstacles Rock faces on his meteoric rise to success. Color. $29.95

Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959)
a.k.a. Grave Robbers From Outer Space
Called 'the worst film ever made' - Ed Wood's signature film is in a class by itself.
