| Thrill to some classic science fiction stories that feature Venusian women, Martian teenagers, and the last woman on Earth, among other stories.
The Phantom from 10,000 Leagues (1955): Another of the world's teeming supply of mad scientists manages to rouse a horrible monster out of the ocean using radioactivity. It attacks the coastline viciously, and must be stopped at all costs! Fortunately, a shrewd scientist and his partner in investigation, a government sleuth, manage to track the creature's insane inventors down.
Cast: Kent Taylor
Director: Dan Milner
The Brain That Wouldn't Die (1962): After getting trapped on an orbiting satellite, an unlucky soul must watch some of the silliest movies ever made as part of a fiendish experiment dreamed up by a group of sinister scientists. But as he views the films with two robots, he actually starts having a good time. He and his companions begin to make fun of what they see up on the screen... and their observations are frequently hilarious.
Cast: Jason Evers, Virginia Leith, Leslie Daniels
Director: Joseph Green
The Atomic Brain (1964): A rich old woman hires a convenient mad scientist to put her brain in a young woman's body, but when she rubs him the wrong way he decides to put her brain in a common housecat instead. A.K.A. "Monstrosity."
Cast: Frank Gerstle
Director: Joseph Mascelli
The Phantom Planet (1961): It's "Gulliver's Travels" in space as an astronaut lands on an asteroid populated by 6-inch tall humanoids and must help them ward off their monster attackers. A 60's B-movie set in the future--1980!
Cast: Coleen Gray, Richard Kiel
Director: William Marshall
First Spaceship On Venus (1959): Eight curious scientists in the far-future year 1985 try to find the source and meaning of a message disc from the planet Venus. Based on "The Astronauts" by the great Stanislaw Lem (SOLARIS), this SF curio also boasts a multinational cast, as well as beautiful photography and production design. Though Lem disowned the film, it stands on its own rather well and is probably one of the best SF films from the fifties.
Cast: Aldrick Lukes, Yoko Tani
Director: Kurt Maetzig
Last Woman on Earth (1960): A gangster named Harold (Anthony Carbone), his moll, Mary-Belle (Betsy Jones Moreland), and his lawyer, Martin (Robert Towne), are scuba diving in Puerto Rico when H-bombs wipe out the world. Since these three happened to be underwater at the time, they are the sole survivors and get to wander the empty streets and engage in lots of dialogue about humankind's future. Eventually the men fight over who will mate with Mary-Belle and rebuild civilization. Martin is afraid if she spawns with the thuggish Harold, the world will be repopulated with violent people doomed to a future of more bomb building. On Harold's side is the strong-survive theory of Darwinian natural selection. At least the three get to enjoy some crowd-free shopping before the inevitable showdown.
Cast: Betsy Jones-Moreland, Antony Carbone, Robert Towne
Director: Roger Corman
They Came from Beyond Space (1967): When extra-terrestrial beings land on Earth and begin taking over people's brains, only one man is capable of saving mankind - Dr. Curt Temple, who is protected by a silver plate in his skull.
Cast: Robert Hutton
Director: Freddie Francis
Teenagers from Outer Space (1959): On a twenty thousand dollar budget, director Graeff produced, wrote, filmed and cut this movie in which he also stars as one of a gang of spaced-out teens sent to Earth to prepare the way for a lobster-like race of invaders. When one of the delinquents falls for an Earth girl, the others hunt him down with ray-guns.
Cast: David Love, Dawn Anderson
Director: Tom Graeff
