Wasn’t it Carl Sagan who said, when humanity eventually encounters an alien species, we can only be sure of one thing, they will be wearing a diving helmet.
I love your Dad, Robin. 🤗 I remember watching this before, but didn't really have much of an opinion. Seems to me, they set everything up, then had no idea where to go with it. So, we get standard alien lands on earth / everybody chase it / alien dies. With a little more effort, it might have been more intriguing. But it's W Lee Wilder. More effort just isn't in his vocabulary, is it?
I could see true scientists saying, "At least, we have a body to analyze. Oh. Hell. He evaporated. We ran up a lot of expenses in this project and now we don't even have a body. No-one is going to believe us. Where was the spaceship? Did anyone find and secure the spaceship? Well, everyone was fixated on the roaming alien and we didn't look." Unfortunately, a scrap dealer found it first.
I love all those science fiction B-movies from the 50s and 60s! This one was a little slow and the ending was anticlimactic but I really like your review especially the lassie joke.😂
THANK YOU for covering one of my favorite guilty pleasure films. One detail you glossed over as blithely as the film glosses over the story of Betty and her lover is the fact that during the big reveal at the end, the Alien appears to be nude - or at least as nude as one could appear in a film of this period.
Fun review! My takeaway was how sad the story was from the alien's point of view. Also, how he didn't seem to be prepared for mishaps. (You didn't mention the Billy Wilder connection.......just as well. More merciful that way.)
I guess this film must have had trouble finding an audience, what with It Came From Outer Space (1953), The Day The Earth Stood Still (1953) and Them (1953) all coming out the same year. There is one subplot in a film I wish we had more information about. That would be the failed marriage of Dave (Bruno VeSota) and Liz (Yvette Vickers) in Attack Of The Giant Leeches (1959). I know it's set in a small town, but how in the world did THOSE TWO first get together?
I head this VHS tape when I was in the army, somewhere between 86-89, and this film and Planet of the Dinosaurs would be on every morning after PT, torturing my roommates. Everyone loved the tapping code, and how Barbara Randall figures out that code, but not the final code. Truly impressive. This film has it all men, women, an alien, and a dog. What more do you want?
I really enjoyed this film when I watched it maybe fifteen years ago. I enjoyed that most of the locations and cities are local to where I grew up. Even the dome of Griffith Observatory, a place I visited as a kid in the early 70s! I enjoyed the methodical, procedural approach that locates the creature - it makes sense. Cheap, yet satisfying.
This is a favourite movie for me as it really tried to be something different for a B movie of its time. It tries but doesn't completely succeed. Noreen Nash is solid.
I remember this film from SHOCK THEATER in the early Sixties, one that I enjoyed a lot. I have it in a Mill Creek 50 set and still like it, possibly more for nostalgia's sake than anything else. Still, it's not an awful film, and I'm grateful to Robin for not laying on the snark just because it's old and cheap, as some might do.
I have that set too. Pretty good stuff on there actually. Bottom front of box says anniversary edition, but I can't for the life of me understand why 🤔🤣
Is like the ending of Burn After Read "_ What did we learn, Palmer? _ I don't know, sir. _ I don't f***ng know either. I guess we learned not to do it again. _ Yes sir. _ I'm f***ed if I know what we did. _ Yes sir, it's, uh, hard to say. _ Jesus F***ng Christ."
Hi Robin! Loving your books. Have you watched the movie “The Death Kiss” with Bela Lugosi? You can find it on RUclips. It’s kind of a neat little murder mystery on a film set. Thought it would be up this channel’s alley.
I watched this film so many times back in the sixties on Saturday afternoon Science Fiction Theatre, I always thought better treatment then most, I'm glad Dark Corners didn't rib it a new one LOL
Not so much a subplot but... in Stephen Sommer's bloated action film "Van Helsing" the Valerious family has been hunting Dracula for centuries because their ancestor Valerious the Elder made a promise that neither he nor his descendants will enter heaven until Dracula is destroyed. If they fail at this nine generations of their family is left in purgatory. So they have looked for Dracula's hidden castle for centuries. Later in the movie it is revealed that there is a portal in the Valerious castle that leads directly to Dracula's castle but no one has been able to open it because Valerious the Elder took a crucial part of it to Vatican. It is also revealed that Dracula can only be killed by a werewolf (go with it) and Valerious the Elder left a cryptic clue about this in the form of a hidden painting. So, Valerious the Elder made a promise neither he nor anyone in his bloodline will enter Heaven until Dracula is killed. He has a portal in his castle leading directly to Dracula which he doesn't tell his children about nor does he tell them that a crucial part of it is in Vatican. He also knows Dracula can only be killed by a werewolf and, again, doesn't tell anyone about it, only leaves behind a hidden cryptic painting as a clue, thus ensuring his family would hunt Dracula with stakes and crosses that would do nothing. I thus conclude that Valerious the Elder must have been a massive, massive asshole who wanted to troll his entire family by condemning them into eternal damnation. It is possible I have given way too much thought to what is just a bunch exposition lines, but thinking about this possible backstory has been more entertaining than anything else in the movie.
The first time I watched this I thought, "If this was Star Trek this would be a horror story!" Think of how badly botched this First Contact protocol went. That poor alien... their whole crew is wondering what happened to the away mission :( Can you imagine Voyager's Tom Paris and Ensign Kim loaded this in the holosuite and the end is... the goodguy dies and the paranoid hyumons want to loot the corpse.
It looked like bits and pieces from other alien themed B movies. From the poster, it looked like ROBOT MONSTER , the stock footage reminded me of PLAN NINE FROM OUTER SPACE. Dissolving alien looked like it came from EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS. UFOs were a big thing in the 50's along with the Contactee Movement.
Not really a subplot, but I'd like to see what made Johnathan Kent (Kevin Costner version) so afraid of the world that letting a tornado kill him was a better option than his son risking exposure to save him.
I think that when he was going to the lab door and Barbara said she wasn't alone, her husband looked a bit like George Reeves playing Clark Kent. I like Barbara. She would probably have gotten along with scientist Karen Grant from "Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster".
I like the metal looking big gold fish bowl with old days TV antennas the alien wore. Maybe he got hurt feelings because nobody appreciated his cool and hip style for his time and place!
The director was Billy Wilder's less talented cousin who left the fur business in NYC to make it in Hollywood. The best part is that the alien is detected by .... the FCC, who apparently have cars with big radar style things on their roofs, riding around to detect "unlicensed broadcasts." Yes, the FCC, on guard for America!
You mean scientists do other things than pouring liquids from beakers and flasks to other beakers and flasks? I've been watching a lot of films and I think you're right, sometimes they hook up electric cables to things too. Usually patchwork bodies that they intend to reanimate. Ah, science.
There was "Maximum Overdrive" where the ending scroll tells of an alien spacecraft getting destroyed by a "Weather Satellite" which was armed with a laster cannon and a thermo nuclear device. "Phantom From Space" does show the problem with realistic science fiction movies, they can be boring.
In Jurassic Park 3, when Billy says about the Spinosaurus, "I don't remember that on InGen's list," and Dr. Grant says "Because it wasn't on their list," it implies something shady had been happening on Isla Sorna after The Lost World: Jurassic Park. On wikis, it actually says InGen scientists had been illegally cloning dinosaurs on Isla Sorna after the San Diego Incident. I'd have rather watched a movie about that and Dr. Grant digging into InGen's dirty secrets than the mess of a script that Jurassic Park 3 became.
Later it was retconned into Isla Sorna becoming the testing site for the prototypes of the Indominus project. The Spino was one of those prototypes, which is why it was so persistent and aggressive even for an InGen creation.
Conor Brennan + Michael Crichton's 'The Lost World ' novel was so Much Darker than the movie. Spielberg took a lot of liberties from it, the most glaring was the escaped T-Rex, in the novel it never happened. Both novels are a great read.
Has anybody ever made a movie with just stock footage? I dont mean woody allen's whats up tiger lily, or steve oedekirk's kung pow. But a full 90 minutes of public domain images, dialogue and music. Now that would be a cool premise.
YES! Irwin Allen made a documentary called "The Seas Around Us" entirely out of stock footage. He did it when he was just a junior editor at 20th Century Fox, after hours, without permission, just using footage they had in the film vault. He narrated i himself (based on a popular science book of the same name) and then showed it to his bosses. They were so impressed that they bought the rights to the book, hired a professional to narrate it (with a cleaned-up script), and released it as a feature documentary. It won an academy award that year for best doc, which ain't bad for a nobody making his first film by screwing around with company resources after hours.
Hey, Robin, check out an episode of the old Gerry Anderson show "UFO" where one of the alien invaders stranded at a farmhouse becomes involved in a romantic triangle murder plot. Maybe that'll scratch your itch about the couple at the beginning of this movie.
Thankskilling SUCKS. It keeps telling that JonBenet Ramsay joke over and over - that's how "funny" it is. Rather they review The Creeping Flesh. Not just because it's Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee but because I'd like to see if someone else knows what the hell is going on in that
It's by no means a good movie, but I have to say I was impressed with it more than most of the movies on my 12 Classic Sci-Fi set and what I was also originally expecting from this movie.
Maybe the alien was trying to tell us something! Maybe if we had come at him in a more friendly way things might have been different. Perhaps today the human race learned something about itself. THE END
I sort of like that the scientist observed the phenomenon and then reported factually. Who says all scientists issue deep philosophical insights at the drop of a hat --- or the evaporation of an alien?
I was far more interested in the first half of From Dusk 'til Dawn. I lost all interest in the movie when the vampires showed up (with the exception of Salma Hayek).
That's very interesting, exactly where could that movie have gone if not for the interruption of vampires? Sounds like good fan fiction fodder for sure!
Well you are entitled to your opinion, but the first half is just a generic crime story. It's the second half that makes the movie, just like in Psycho.
this is my favorite show keep up the great work 100 times better than that smarmy git mark kermode ,very witty sharp and amusing love it nathan achim sheppar. please review the first movie i shot called the asylem with ingrid pitt and her daughter stephanie pitt love to hear you review that film1999
Thank you for the videos. They are really interesting and funny too, by the way. Aliens, Romans of the roman empire, egyptians, american aborigens, Nazis... all speak english in the hollywood movies!, Its the right thing to do... I think in jurasik park, the dino do too!, are too smart to talk in other language. Don't you think?... And about the code... could be morse code, listening the earth morse code of that era...o in that time, they receive the tv transmition of the man with small mustache of Germany!!!, No, not that... Well. The univese speak in MORSE, that's the idea and the science woman? that is trying to demostrate with the test tubes!!... Well. could be better if in the costume there is a gorilla like the movie robot monster. The movie look like LESS than bad, like 0.23 stars of 5 or 0.23 of 10 stars too. Again thank you for the reviews.
Wasn’t it Carl Sagan who said, when humanity eventually encounters an alien species, we can only be sure of one thing, they will be wearing a diving helmet.
Your scientific advisor is clear and concise. Much appreciated.
Soooo funny 😂🤣🤣🤣
At 4:15- 4:17 I was half expecting Barbara's husband to take off his hat and glasses, dash into an alley and turn into George Reeves.
"It just doesn't say anything, or do anything, or go anywhere." That sounds like reality to me. This must be a documentary.
I love your Dad, Robin. 🤗
I remember watching this before, but didn't really have much of an opinion. Seems to me, they set everything up, then had no idea where to go with it. So, we get standard alien lands on earth / everybody chase it / alien dies. With a little more effort, it might have been more intriguing.
But it's W Lee Wilder. More effort just isn't in his vocabulary, is it?
The Dad is always a delight to see. And this time we got to experience his wisdom for 3 times!!!
I could see true scientists saying, "At least, we have a body to analyze. Oh. Hell. He evaporated. We ran up a lot of expenses in this project and now we don't even have a body.

THANK YOU for covering one of my favorite guilty pleasure films.
One detail you glossed over as blithely as the film glosses over the story of Betty and her lover is the fact that during the big reveal at the end, the Alien appears to be nude - or at least as nude as one could appear in a film of this period.
"Those fluids won't pour themselves. " I don't know why but I just lost it at that one!! LOLOL
Well, if the alien did it; it might look that way.
I'm glad to see a pretty positive review. This film might not be GREAT, but it's a lot smarter than people would expect.
I wonder what your dad thinks of the flying object being detected by an oscilloscope?
In war films, there's a concept that I think is called "Squad as Character." I think that is what they were going for here.
I hope so. Is that on TV Tropes btw?
Fun review! My takeaway was how sad the story was from the alien's point of view. Also, how he didn't seem to be prepared for mishaps. (You didn't mention the Billy Wilder connection.......just as well. More merciful that way.)
Love when your "science advisor" is on!
Well, it’s not a subplot, but when I tried to watch Boyhood, I was way more interested in the bug that landed on my tv screen 30 hours into the movie.
LOL. This should become a trope. There's bad movies, and then there are movies that don't even pass the bug-on-the-screen test.
But it took 12 years to make!
I guess this film must have had trouble finding an audience, what with It Came From Outer Space (1953), The Day The Earth Stood Still (1953) and Them (1953) all coming out the same year.

Boy, you ain't kiddin'! She must have been looking for the first opportunity to escape a oppressive home environment, but one can only suppose.

5:50 looks like something out of ''What Was It ?'' by Fitz James O'Brien

probably inspired by an unusual cave painting dubbed ''The Martian''
in the mountains of Tassili, Sahara desert.

Wow, I'm glad I only watched the first 20 minutes of that obnoxious movie.
MORE DAD!!
Much as I love it, the relationship between Hendry and Nikki in “The Thing From Another World” is often more interesting than the creature chase.
The first time I watched this I thought, "If this was Star Trek this would be a horror story!" Think of how badly botched this First Contact protocol went. That poor alien... their whole crew is wondering what happened to the away mission :(
Can you imagine Voyager's Tom Paris and Ensign Kim loaded this in the holosuite and the end is... the goodguy dies and the paranoid hyumons want to loot the corpse.
Why is ‘Women carried by guys with diving helmets’ a genre? Robot Monster also counts.
It wouldn't be the 1950s if we didn't have our very thinly disguised Cold War alien visitation movies.
It looked like bits and pieces from other alien themed B movies. From the poster, it looked like ROBOT MONSTER , the stock footage reminded me of PLAN NINE FROM OUTER SPACE. Dissolving alien looked like it came from EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS. UFOs were a big thing in the 50's along with the Contactee Movement.
And the alien's makeup was surely a ripoff of "The Thing".
@@wildman2012 Yes! Most assuredly.
