    I love Creature Feature so much! "Kronos" is one of my favorite sci-fi classic movie of 1957. Along with "Deadlier than the Male" is one of my favorite movie of 1967. And I just can't wait to see a 2016 slasher flick "Terrifier" on Creature Feature on October 5th, 2024.

    The communication console and screen from Klaatu's saucer featured in The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) can be seen directly in the background of Labcentral's "Astro Physics" Laboratory where Vera Hunter and Dr. Hubbell Eliot have their confrontation.

    "M47" (Dr. Leslie Gaskell's designation in the movie for the so-called asteroid) is in real life, one of the missing Messier Objects whose correct position was not definitively identified until 1959 (two years after the release of this film). It is an open star cluster in the constellation of Puppis.

    I remember watching stuff like this back in the early 70s as a kid...It would come on late Friday night which was so great due to next couple of days there's no school because IT'S the WEEKENDDDD lol. If memory's correct, the show was call Friday Night Creature Feature, something like that. My little brother and I would stay up late, watching it on our 12 inch black and white ( that our parents allowed us to have in our room ) tv, with those good old rabbit ears type. I'm sure those over 50 or so remembers the 'rabbit ears' antennas, lol. We would watch it, laying on our stomach ( in the dark ), from our bunk beds.. There would be movies like ' Fire Maiden of Outer Space '.....' The Incredible Colossal Man '.....'The Blob '.....' Gargoyles' ....'Planet of Vampires ' and etc...GOD, the early 70s were truly the best of times growing up as a kid. I had such a wonderful life full of wonderful memories growing up..

    Kronos... A powerful anti recoil mod for gamers to use while playing games. How did they know in 1957 that in 2024 it would become a huge issue. 😅😅😅😅
    Pretty good movie. 👍

      I was 11 when I first saw it on tv. It scared me too. It was a unique movie, similar to the "Mysterians".
