I can’t criticize these movies using current values as opposed to of the 60’s. As a nerdy teenager i was just happy to get sci fi movies back then.

This was the kind of sci-fi I was used to as a kid, wit a few exceptions, until Star Trek premiered in 1966. With that, I became a Trekkie for life and started reading sci-fi instead of just watching B movies.
What’s up with the Biblical names for these ships? Faith & Hope? I don’t think so. It’s supposed to be a scientific expedition, not the saga of LDS or JW missionaries out to “spread the good news.”
Come on, its perfrctly fair to criticize many of these movies based on their own standatds. The very first line describes "2 billion lights years through the solar system, snd talks about visiting other galaxies on what is understood to be Earth's second voyage in space.

Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Michael Collins were the three astronauts who were a part of the Apollo 11 crew. All three were born in 1930, making Buzz Aldrin 39 and the others 38. (Edit: The Captain, James Brown was 45 when he made this movie.)
A year later Star Trek was first seen on TV. This movie illustrated Hollywood's idea of space science fiction at the time. It shows just how groundbreaking Star Trek was.
Since you brought it up, Star Trek was pretty stupid, as well. Its set-up and Assumptions were just as silly as those of this movie (or of such space-operas as 'Buck Rogers', 'Flash Gordon', and other serials). On Star Trek, we were shown that ~every~ 'planet' they visited had one (and only one) 'culture' (such as '30s Gangland World', 'Retired Greek Gods Planet', CroMagnon Patriots World, etc, etc). Turns out that Outer Space Exploration is no more or less than 'Sociology 101'..... Likewise, they all featured ONE climate ("It's a desert planet, Jim", "Tricorders show this Class M is entirely a primordeal jungle", etc). The ever-expanding (at 'light-speed', they say) universe never seemed to affect the borders of the Klingon, Romulan, and Starfleet empires, either, did it? The only real difference in Holly-wood's rendition of 'space' between, say, 'Rocky Jones, Space Ranger' and 'Star Trek' is that they took down the curtains....and added some swooshy doors. Groundbreaking? No; not so much......
@BrainEatingApe Well, even in the hit masonic allegory '2001', everybody in "zero gravity" still moved *slower* than 'normal' or 'high' gravity.....that's clearly the OPPOSITE of what physics demands. Think about it; less grav/resistance means ~faster~ movement, making your spacemen go ~slower~ because they're in 'outer space' is ridiculous. That realization is what cured a lot of people of believing in the NASA legend, too. They got it backwards, and now the portrayals of 'outer space' are stuck with it. Oops.......
@@hippiekarl7 Guy, usually I would say you're an idiot. Because Star Trek is quintessential on how life in space can evolve. Star Trek DNA 40 + years are all over NASA and the world's technology. The flip phone, iPad, FaceTime flat-screen TVs, the computer on how it was used, and CT Scanner, etc. Also, motion detection opening doors and laser gun.
@@Kemet3.0 Guy, usually I would say you're Triggered that your sacred cow just got gored. Because StarTrek is 'quintessential' to how your Predictive Programming evolves. You even supplied a partial list of consumer products you were directed to love as soon as they became available (except lasers; they were already in use by then...that's why, on the Enterprise, theirs were 'phasers', which sounds more 'futurey' and 'sciencey').... Funny you'd invoke NASA; that (the Apollo Program) was the TV ~mini-series~ that took over immediately when ST/TOS ended. I remember them both; I was 9 at the time. It was disappointing, to say the least, to see that the new show "NASA Presents: Apollo 11" was ~worse~ than ST/TOS in both 'production value' ~and~ 'scientific Realism'. At least StarTrek had the TV decorum to use a 'transporter' for switching scenes to and from an 'outdoor environment', and thus avoided the whole idiotic NASA "low-gravity = slow-motion" thing. It was tedious to see that BS during Apollo 11: slow motion 'on the Moon', but they'd ~jump~ and go at 1/2 speed yet they NEVER got any higher than when jumping right here, at ~real~ speed. That's as unrealistic as it was seeing Buzz wearing ~different~ gloves outside, without having gone back inside, depressurizing......and so on, and on. For TV shows, then, it's StarTrek > NASA's Apollo Program (which ain't sayin' much), *especially* since NASA was going as (you can't make this stuff up) 'Reality TV'. Their abject failure to adhere to the fundamental Laws of Physics, from start to finale, however, was only possible to carry off due to the carefully Programmed public's given predisposition to believe it anyway (because JFK/ColdWar/confirmation bias). It looks like it worked on you, too......do you even science, bro?
In another generation they will say the same thing about today's sci fi movies-- While the fires, droughts, dying forests and oceans wreak devastation. They will also curse us...
@@auggie803 That was near the end. @ 36:26 "How close are the *_meteorites?_* " "40 seconds." @ 36:35 "I'm setting up *_a force field around the ship._* If there aren't to many, we should be able to deflect."
This was a good movie and really illustrates how even today we have no comprehension of how vast space is. It's funny how they set off to explore another galaxy like it's an hour ride to Grandma's house .
@@bullettube9863 NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft launched from Earth in 1977. Because Voyager 1 is more than 15 billion miles (24 billion kilometers) from Earth, it takes 22.5 hours for a radio signal to reach the spacecraft. And then it's another 22.5 hours for the probe's response to reach antennas on the ground. And radio signals travel at the speed of light. Space Probe Taurus was made in 1965. This movie is not alone in that it requires what's known as "suspension of disbelief." (The operative word is "REQUIRES.") In the old westerns, they had "infinite repeaters". Even in new movies heroes run around at full sprint while somehow carrying about 150lbs. of extra ammunition and/or magazines. _Suspension of disbelief._ It's quite amazing how prevalent it is - and not just in movies.
90% of these old sci-fi films made it easy for wardrobe; All they needed were tons of gray flannel suits and military uniforms... and a few funky space suits!
I love these old movies. It's funny how they saw the future then. But I have to laugh even more about their concept (or lack of it) of astronomy. Even in 1965 we knew that other starts were light years away and galaxies were millions of light years distant. It's still fun to watch them.
I love when the captain is leaving the earth ship, he fires his spacesuit maneuvering jet inside the airlock and bangs right into the doorframe. Brilliant.
That was my grandfathers alien space ship. They boarded and killed him. We demand reparations from the humanoids for this injustice. Lunging at a human was our way of saying hello. Humans responded with murder! No justice, no peace!
@@brandex2011 Even better, when they discover the elements are suitable for human life, the doctor declares "Earth people can live here!" - momentarily completely forgetting about the giant crabs hammering away on the hull, or the seaweed zombie that launched an unprovoked attack on their friend the moment he entered the water and crushed him to death.

Not too shabby with a great cast 👌🏻 ... this was the first and only movie directed by Leonard Katzman who later on won an Emmy for the tevision series Dallas , also want to mention that the original title for this flick was "Space Monster"
Close to the Triangulum Galaxy and a million miles off course sounds like pretty good navigation. Way less than 1 percent deviation. Even in the sixties this was understood as complete theatrical fantasy. I have seen recent movies with the same or worse tech errors. I really enjoyed the "meteorites" burning in space. I was in elementary school when we (students) picked this movie apart. We already knew solid state was coming. No boys complained about sultry Francine York. Also seen on Batman and Lost in space, Bewitched, It takes a thief. and many others. Just wanted to see if she was as nice as I remembered. Not disappointed. RIP Francine Yerich.
It’s so funny that we’re a year away from the premiere of Star Trek, which seems like a huge leap forward in terms of special effects, especially as it pertains to representing a space ship moving through space. It’s pretty low-budget compared to “Forbidden Planet,” which I figure was ahead of its time and remember, we’re three years away from “2001: A Space Odyssey”. Was this film made in 1965 or 1955? Seems like the latter.
I built the star drive for this ship back in the late 60s ,I used an old alternator some bailing twine and a stellar fermion higgs manipulation box aka a twinkie
@ 1:13:42 "As far as I'm concerned, it's just one lousy piece of real estate." They should have known that when they took off for the planet "Bartstow". But screaming, "IT'S A CRAB!!!!" is not an unreasonable reaction. Where there's one, there are usually more. Crabs can be spread by close personal contact, and these people are in fairly close contact. @ 1:17:00 "One of them must have attached himself to the ship!" Yup! That's what they do. Most folks don't have a force field to shake them off, so they use a mix of pyrethrins and piperonyl butoxide. But they were right not to bring alien crabs back to infect Earth. We have enough problems.
I didn't think the dialogue was great. When the lady scientist described the giant crabs as horrible creatures that was not how a professional scientist would react. Also the Captain should never have agreed to let the man who died on the crew. He didn't have a professional attitude to his job and his motivation for being on that flight was self serving. None of them seemed to have been vetted correctly for the job in hand.
This movie came out only a year before Star Trek premiered on TV. It makes you appreciate the revolutionary nature of Gene Rodenberry's vision. When you realize that movies like this represented the state of Hollywood space exploration sci-fi at the time.
FORBIDDEN PLANET came out the previous decade and was a pretty big influence on TREK, as was THIS ISLAND EARTH. . (Also the Czech film, IKARIE XB-1, a quite sophisticated story about a huge interplanetary space craft transporting a large contingent of space explorers on an epic voyage, pre-TREK....The film was dubbed---adequately--and released in the US as VOYAGE TO THE END OF THE UNIVERSE. ROBINSON CRUSOE ON MARS also pre-dates TREK and, in spite of the title, is a well-done, realistic depiction of survival on Mars by a stranded astronaut. Worth checking out if you haven't seen it. This film here is bottom of the barrel and wasn't considered representative of space exploration at the time. It was a joke then. But films like it got made because the studios rarely put any money into bigger, better SF, though there were some pretty notable exceptions. But, perhaps you know all this? Sorry if I've gone on a boring tangent here. Just trying to stick up for some of the brighter SF work that was being done prior to TREK.
@@RSEFX You said it all well, RSEFX! This junk was for the likkered up teenage drive in market niche. If there was merchandising it would have killed, financially
You're comparing apple to oranges. This movies was supposed to be the near future while Star Trek the distant future. Each show was written and filmed to fit those perspectives.
Reminds me of a Houlihan and big chuck show movie . Movie hosts in cleveland . Stayed up every friday night throughout my childhood . 11:30 . Ran for about 30 years.
Ronald McReynolds Excuse me? What is solid propellent rocket fuel if not chemical power? Or mixing liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen or kerosene? All combustion in rocket engines is based on chemical power.
Ronald Rowan Hey Ronald Rowan. Ok, two things, first off I was basically saying that mankind will never make it to the stars on chemical based engines, like most rockets today. it's too little power. Secondly, not ALL engines use chemical power, some for instance are ion propulsion now or nuclear and other types are not being tested for use. But if you say rockets are chemicals that is okay with me as long as you don't say all engines for space are rockets.
If you watched this movie to the end, then that says something about the movie, or something about you :-) Yes, I watched it till the end and enjoyed it, thanks for the upload.
I remember seeing this movie as a kid. Great love triangle! The acting by the main cast is so stiff, the actor playing the alien should have been nominated for an Oscar. I do think the movie’s take on sexism is pretty forward-thinking, though none of the actors probably worked in Hollywood again.
At least in this movie, they got the seat belts (Strap In!) part figured out. Star Trek never did get around to installing seat belts. Strange New Whirls (sic)!
That's still one of the best sci-fi movies ever! And the plot concepts were way ahead of their time. Today, we have to worry about AI and AI robots and even worse - AI singularity! (Edit: Dr. Morbius' _Monster from the Id_ is an example of AI singularity - and we're actually working on realizing it, FFS!)
Did you notice the Bulova dials on the wall of Earth Control?: Bulova was founded and incorporated as the J. Bulova Company in 1875 by Bohemian immigrant Joseph Bulova. It was reincorporated under the name Bulova Watch Company in 1923, became part of the Loews Corporation in 1979, and was sold to Citizen at the end of 2007.
I actually enjoyed this. I didn't expect much but parts of it I really enjoyed- the character development, the spaceships knobs and switches and claustrophobic effects... the curvy lady doctor, the undersea creature, and the overall pace made it all acceptable....It was made in 1965 yet has that 1957 feel, i guess that is why it's knocked, people expect more from a 65-er.
I actually prefer the 50s dynamic and aesthetic - the 60s were far too smarmy, gaudy, cock-sure and wantonly trippy. Casually 'Far out, man'. Damn, I hate the 60s vibe. Atompunk, yes - AustinPowers-punk, not so much thanks.

This is truly a mid 1960s space movie,and one,that only American International could do so well! the sound effects that were used in this movie,later became heavily used in certain cartoon productions that Filmation Associates used,and also in other TV and movies.
And i might also mention,that there were some other sound effects,which were used in the TV series "SEARCH"(1972-73),which were regularly used in the background of this movie!
John was the first person from Earth 🌎 to get into a fight with something in space, and then repeated his first theme by fighting with something in the ocean on another planet. He had a busy week.

Hank: “I’m setting the bomb for 10 minutes”. (Hmm, airlock and two doors to go through when I get back). “Correction, settling the bomb for 15 minutes”.
A good scene would have been they land on a planet occupied by aliens like the one in the spaceship they blew up. The aliens communicate and ask the astronauts, "Say, did you happen to run across one of our ships out there?"
Yes this is one of my favorites. It was released long after the 1950s sci-fi and monster movie boom had ended by the early 1960s. Francine York was beautiful as always. The rest of the cast looked like they all came from Parma Ohio from the old WUAB Channel 43 studio.
44:53 So they landed of one of the moons of the triangulum Galaxy, that escaped its orbit. Can honestly say I never knew galaxys had their own moons orbiting them. You live and learn.
The astronomy & physics is outrageous. But the drama points of exploration & humanity are very optimistic visions of the early space age. I enjoyed it.
Nobody's idea of a good movie, but fun to watch.

That realization is what cured a lot of people of believing in the NASA legend, too. They got it backwards, and now the portrayals of 'outer space' are stuck with it. Oops.......

Guy, usually I would say you're an idiot.
Because Star Trek is quintessential on how life in space can evolve.
Star Trek DNA 40 + years are all over NASA and the world's technology.
The flip phone, iPad, FaceTime flat-screen TVs, the computer on how it was used, and CT Scanner, etc.
Also, motion detection opening doors and laser gun.
@@Kemet3.0 Guy, usually I would say you're Triggered that your sacred cow just got gored.
Because StarTrek is 'quintessential' to how your Predictive Programming evolves. You even supplied a partial list of consumer products you were directed to love as soon as they became available (except lasers; they were already in use by then...that's why, on the Enterprise, theirs were 'phasers', which sounds more 'futurey' and 'sciencey')....
Funny you'd invoke NASA; that (the Apollo Program) was the TV ~mini-series~ that took over immediately when ST/TOS ended. I remember them both; I was 9 at the time. It was disappointing, to say the least, to see that the new show "NASA Presents: Apollo 11" was ~worse~ than ST/TOS in both 'production value' ~and~ 'scientific Realism'. At least StarTrek had the TV decorum to use a 'transporter' for switching scenes to and from an 'outdoor environment', and thus avoided the whole idiotic NASA "low-gravity = slow-motion" thing. It was tedious to see that BS during Apollo 11: slow motion 'on the Moon', but they'd ~jump~ and go at 1/2 speed yet they NEVER got any higher than when jumping right here, at ~real~ speed. That's as unrealistic as it was seeing Buzz wearing ~different~ gloves outside, without having gone back inside, depressurizing......and so on, and on.
For TV shows, then, it's StarTrek > NASA's Apollo Program (which ain't sayin' much), *especially* since NASA was going as (you can't make this stuff up) 'Reality TV'. Their abject failure to adhere to the fundamental Laws of Physics, from start to finale, however, was only possible to carry off due to the carefully Programmed public's given predisposition to believe it anyway (because JFK/ColdWar/confirmation bias).
It looks like it worked on you, too......do you even science, bro?

And yet they had a force field to fend off the flaming “meteorites”.
In another generation they will say the same thing about today's sci fi movies-- While the fires, droughts, dying forests and oceans wreak devastation. They will also curse us...

This was a good movie and really illustrates how even today we have no comprehension of how vast space is. It's funny how they set off to explore another galaxy like it's an hour ride to Grandma's house .
"Over the river and through the woods, to Alpha Centauri we go..."
No, the writer didn't know the difference between a galaxy and a star system.
And yet despite the vast distances, they still had instant communications with Earth? Yikes! Shades of Star Trek!
@@bullettube9863 NASA’s Voyager 1 spacecraft launched from Earth in 1977. Because Voyager 1 is more than 15 billion miles (24 billion kilometers) from Earth, it takes 22.5 hours for a radio signal to reach the spacecraft. And then it's another 22.5 hours for the probe's response to reach antennas on the ground. And radio signals travel at the speed of light.
Space Probe Taurus was made in 1965. This movie is not alone in that it requires what's known as "suspension of disbelief." (The operative word is "REQUIRES.")
In the old westerns, they had "infinite repeaters". Even in new movies heroes run around at full sprint while somehow carrying about 150lbs. of extra ammunition and/or magazines.
_Suspension of disbelief._ It's quite amazing how prevalent it is - and not just in movies.

90% of these old sci-fi films made it easy for wardrobe; All they needed were tons of gray flannel suits and military uniforms... and a few funky space suits!
I like how they casually go into an unguarded, unsealed alien ship, encounter an alien and shoot it, then blow it up.
And the aliens never bother knocking on our door and asking what's up! Why did you shoot?
In space you wouldn't hear the gunshot or the other weird sounds
In side the ship you would
I love these old movies. It's funny how they saw the future then. But I have to laugh even more about their concept (or lack of it) of astronomy. Even in 1965 we knew that other starts were light years away and galaxies were millions of light years distant.
It's still fun to watch them.
The global elite control everything on this planet and know what they want. There isn't any surprise about that.
Yes it's thanks to this film we have start trek and start wars
And I can confirm andros 1 is a successful colony but I'm sick to death of crab pie everyday

Don't you know anything space suit maneuvering jets? They're really difficult to use.,.!
That was my grandfathers alien space ship. They boarded and killed him. We demand reparations from the humanoids for this injustice. Lunging at a human was our way of saying hello. Humans responded with murder! No justice, no peace!
He shouldn't have stuck his tongue out.
I apologise on behalf of the human race and thank you for not invading us in retaliation.
I like that whoever designed the space ship made sure there was a department store armchair in the cockpit @3:18
This film has it all. Love, Action, Giant Crabs & a guest appearance from The Creature of The Black Lagoon.
They’re worried about giant crabs, but no one seems to care about the constant flow of bubbles leaving the ship.

Not too shabby with a great cast 👌🏻 ... this was the first and only movie directed by Leonard Katzman who later on won an Emmy for the tevision series Dallas , also want to mention that the original title for this flick was "Space Monster"
Perhaps the greatest film of any kind ever made.
Close to the Triangulum Galaxy and a million miles off course sounds like pretty good navigation. Way less than 1 percent deviation.
Even in the sixties this was understood as complete theatrical fantasy.
I have seen recent movies with the same or worse tech errors.
I really enjoyed the "meteorites" burning in space.
I was in elementary school when we (students) picked this movie apart.
We already knew solid state was coming.
No boys complained about sultry Francine York.
Also seen on Batman and Lost in space, Bewitched, It takes a thief. and many others.
Just wanted to see if she was as nice as I remembered.
Not disappointed.
RIP Francine Yerich.

It’s so funny that we’re a year away from the premiere of Star Trek, which seems like a huge leap forward in terms of special effects, especially as it pertains to representing a space ship moving through space. It’s pretty low-budget compared to “Forbidden Planet,” which I figure was ahead of its time and remember, we’re three years away from “2001: A Space Odyssey”. Was this film made in 1965 or 1955? Seems like the latter.
Good thing they were prepared for anything. You never know when you’ll need a wet suit and diving gear on a trip to outer space.
Hilarious!

What could it be!!! I've never seen anything like it!!!!! It's fantastic!!!! Me screaming at TV---IT'S A CRAB!!!!
It was a Blue Crab.
@@auggie803 It was a standard crab. Also known as an STD crab.
@ 1:13:42 "As far as I'm concerned, it's just one lousy piece of real estate." They should have known that when they took off for the planet "Bartstow". But screaming, "IT'S A CRAB!!!!" is not an unreasonable reaction. Where there's one, there are usually more. Crabs can be spread by close personal contact, and these people are in fairly close contact. @ 1:17:00 "One of them must have attached himself to the ship!" Yup! That's what they do. Most folks don't have a force field to shake them off, so they use a mix of pyrethrins and piperonyl butoxide. But they were right not to bring alien crabs back to infect Earth. We have enough problems.
Same!😂
" new power sources that will power their ships far beyond earth's universe" wow! that's some powerful shit!

Insightful dialogue among the actors. These older movies had the greatest writers ! Creativity and imagination are at their best !!
I didn't think the dialogue was great. When the lady scientist described the giant crabs as horrible creatures that was not how a professional scientist would react. Also the Captain should never have agreed to let the man who died on the crew. He didn't have a professional attitude to his job and his motivation for being on that flight was self serving. None of them seemed to have been vetted correctly for the job in hand.
I agree 👍
This movie came out only a year before Star Trek premiered on TV. It makes you appreciate the revolutionary nature of Gene Rodenberry's vision. When you realize that movies like this represented the state of Hollywood space exploration sci-fi at the time.
FORBIDDEN PLANET came out the previous decade and was a pretty big influence on TREK, as was THIS ISLAND EARTH. . (Also the Czech film, IKARIE XB-1, a quite sophisticated story about a huge interplanetary space craft transporting a large contingent of space explorers on an epic voyage, pre-TREK....The film was dubbed---adequately--and released in the US as VOYAGE TO THE END OF THE UNIVERSE. ROBINSON CRUSOE ON MARS also pre-dates TREK and, in spite of the title, is a well-done, realistic depiction of survival on Mars by a stranded astronaut. Worth checking out if you haven't seen it. This film here is bottom of the barrel and wasn't considered representative of space exploration at the time. It was a joke then. But films like it got made because the studios rarely put any money into bigger, better SF, though there were some pretty notable exceptions. But, perhaps you know all this? Sorry if I've gone on a boring tangent here. Just trying to stick up for some of the brighter SF work that was being done prior to TREK.

Ronald Rowan Hey Ronald Rowan. Ok, two things, first off I was basically saying that mankind will never make it to the stars on chemical based engines, like most rockets today. it's too little power. Secondly, not ALL engines use chemical power, some for instance are ion propulsion now or nuclear and other types are not being tested for use. But if you say rockets are chemicals that is okay with me as long as you don't say all engines for space are rockets.

I remember seeing this movie as a kid. Great love triangle! The acting by the main cast is so stiff, the actor playing the alien should have been nominated for an Oscar. I do think the movie’s take on sexism is pretty forward-thinking, though none of the actors probably worked in Hollywood again.
I’m sure the cast were experiencing something like the pangs of career loss. But I want thank them wherever they are. This was an entertaining story.
Pretty decent movie, considering it's budget. Good writing, acting, passable sets, and mostly good effects.
I love the opening scene best. They had LazyBoy recliners onboard.
Remember, when you are travelling hundreds of miles through space, make sure you have a LazyBoy recliner!

At least in this movie, they got the seat belts (Strap In!) part figured out. Star Trek never did get around to installing seat belts. Strange New Whirls (sic)!

Particularly when you think that only three years after this dodgy little piece of cinema , Stanley Kubrick released the daddy of sci-fi films
