Before video… before DVD… and long before Monsters HD, this was the kind of thing you looked forward to as a kid to get your weekly horror movie fix.

This looks very much like something I remember from my local station as a little boy too. The guy's voice especially takes me back.
COOL CLIP.....THERES A MONSTER WITH A BLUE HEAD RIGHT WHEN THE GUY SAYS SOMETHING ABOUT A JELLYFISH, I TOTALLY REMEMBER THAT THING BUT FROM WHERE????
>MONSTER WITH A BLUE HEAD
That would be Emperor Guillotine from Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot, one of my all-time favorite Japanese TV series ever. You can find out more here:

There are also clips on youtube.
A jelly fish monster? Look up the film *Sting of Death*, circa 1962.
