I vaguely remember an old black and white movie with things that looked like lampshades. The lampshades would settle on a persons head and they would start bleeding and die. Anybody know the movie?

"Not of this Earth" (1957)
Roger Corman's 1957 film included, among other things, a flying alien shaped like a lampshade that lands on Dr. Rochelle's head and kills him, with blood pooling out. A fuller synopsis may be found on Wikipedia.

@Valorum - I tried larger dimensions first, but had to play around for a while with tradeoffs of size, dithering, bit depth, and noise to get it under SE's 2 MiB image limit. (Heh, I remember when, back during belt-onion days, a 2 MiB GIF would have seemed enormous, and a GiF of these approximate dimensions could be considered remarkable solely for other reasons.) Btw, your edit actually did break 2 links by accident. :P (IMDB link got malformed, and WP link got hidden entirely -- I've fixed both.)
