It’s not the poor misunderstood Tabanga, but the movie did come out the same year.
“Why Tabanga get no love? Tabanga sad.”

Today we have the Tabanga, the creeping radioactive voodoo tree from the 1957 dumpster fire movie that is "From Hell It Came"! 🌳

Been wanting to paint a portrait of everyone’s favorite walking tree for a while. “Tabanga” is acrylic on 16X20 canvas, dedicated to the late Bob Burns. FROM HELL IT CAME monster originally designed by the great Paul Blaisdell but reworked by Don Post Studios who built the suit. Painting is for sale

Every scene of the Tabanga carrying off a victim is hilarious. The poor suit actor stumbles along, clearly blind as hell and struggling with the weight, and they carefully avoid showing it bending down to pick them up. #FromHellItCame

Man, the villainous chief basically served himself up to the Tabanga. The thing is a good 7 feet tall and he manages to miss it with a spear from about 4 feet away.
I would also mock how slow Tabanga moves, but it waddles along at a pretty good clip for a tree.

"Are you sure it was the Tabanga?"
Are they expecting her to say that it was some other walking tree monster? #FromHellItCame

"I Am Groot" - the original. Or "Jack In The Green" .... I dunno.
From 1957 classic cinema - "From Hell It Came". Read the Wikipedia or IMDB entries - or even watch the movie - you still won't know what the hell it's about. Meet "Tabanga"

This movie scarred me for life!
"The 1957 sci-fi horror movie From Hell It Came famously features multiple scenes where the walking, vengeful tree monster (known as the Tabanga) throws people into quicksand. Quicksand serves as a primary killing method for the monster throughout the film."

There's a fascinating account of the genesis of the "Tabanga" in Randy Palmer's "Paul Blaisdell, Monster Maker". Paul's original design was deemed too expensive, and construction was handed over to another company. Fortunately, the characteristic "Blaisdell scoul" survived the reworking.
