Bug-eyed monster

The bug-eyed monster is an early convention of the science fiction genre.[1]Extraterrestrials in science fiction of the 1930s were often described (or pictured on covers of pulp magazines) as grotesque creatures with huge, oversized
or compound eyes and a lust for women, blood or general destruction.
In the contactee/abductee mythology which grew up quickly beginning in 1952, the blond, blue-eyed, and friendly Nordic aliens of the 1950s were quickly replaced by small, unfriendly bug-eyed creatures, closely matching in many respects the pulp cover clichés of the 1930s which have remained the abductor norm since the 1960s.
Popular culture
- The Daleks from Doctor Who. When the show was created, the BBC producers stated that Doctor Who would be a "hard" science fiction show, and there would be no bug-eyed monsters – explicitly stated by show creator Sydney Newman. Writer Terry Nation created the Daleks in the show's second serial, much to Newman's disapproval, but later to his placation. These have frequently been referred to as bug-eyed monsters since that time.[2]
- The main character in the animated children's television series Invader Zim is a bug-eyed monster.[citation needed]
- The Pokémon species "Beheeyem" is based on the concept of bug-eyed monsters in its design, characteristics, and name.[citation needed]
- The aliens in the 1957 film Invasion of the Saucer Men are bug-eyed monsters and may have been the inspiration for the concept.[citation needed]
