The Wolfman
The Mummy
The Behemoth
It came from beneath the sea
The amazing collosal man
Attack of the Crab Monsters
Tons more. Can't remember them all, only recall snippets of some and don't know the titles. I keep watching for such movies on Turner Classics but they only rarely show these kinds of fims.

As a kid in the 70's i used to buy super 8 films of some of these movies, you could go into kmart for instance and buy 10 minute condensed versions of "Attack of the Crab Monsters" and a ton of others.
I still recall the line of dialogue from Attack of the Crab Monsters-
"So professor, how are the crabs blowing up the island?"
You could also buy the super 8 film stock and go shoot your own, which i did when i could scrape the money together cuz it was pretty expensive.
Turner is just too conservative. Occasionally you will see The Wolfman or Invasion Of The Body Snatchers but thats about it.
