WOW, 1965 ehh ???
I cant think of the name of this film but was remade some years later and it starts off with this 12 year old looking out his bedroom window late one evening and 'something' crashes into the sand dunes.
The head alien is just that, a 'Head ' in a glass Belljohn and has to be carried everywhere by 'its' minions who are all dressed in purple 'Onesies' and they intend to take over the world by kidnapping anyone who comes to investigate the crash site mound by injecting a devise into the nape of the neck which allows the 'Alien' to control their minds.
The original version was made in the early 50's and is in colour despite when it was made ( thats a tongue in cheek joke, Joyce).
I wonder how you will classify 'Metropolis' made in the late 1920's before 'Talkies killed the Silent Movie'............
Last night I watch a 1955 episode of 'I love Lucy' that John Wayne appears in and a supposed outdoor scene was actually in a studio and the backdrop was a painted flat.

Try 'Invaders from Mars' made in 1953, or do a search of 'sci fi movies made in the 1950's' and found this one in Wikipedia.
