Of course, you prob all know it is on DVD now - for 7 dollars on amazon - widescreen too.

this should have been included in the TCM 4 movie pack that had WWE, since it was Allied Artists

That TCM 4-pack was a combination of two separate, previous DVD releases of double features, The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms/Them! and World Without End/Satellite in the Sky. Except for WWE, the other three were all Warner Bros. movies, but all are now owned by Warner.

World Without End (1956) of course was a kind of precursor to Queen of Outer Space, from the same director and studio, and QOOS even used outtakes of the spaceship, some of the dialog, and the attack of the pillow spider from the earlier film.

Anyway, in 2007 Queen of Outer Space was released in a box set that also featured two other AA sci-fi films from the fifties, Attack of the 50-Foot Woman and The Giant Behemoth. All three are now available on the Warner Archives label.
