Conquest of Space Retro sets, atmospheric music and an action-packed story are the highlights of this enthralling sci-fi adventure. The commander of a flight to Mars endangers his crew when he gradually becomes obsessed with their precedent-setting space journey, cracks under pressure, and tries to sabotage the mission. Produced by innovative, Oscar®-winning filmmaker George Pal (The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine) and directed by Academy Award® winner Byron Haskin (Treasure Island, Robinson Crusoe On Mars), this space-exploration odyssey vividly illustrates the premise that no matter how advanced science becomes…human weaknesses remain. I Married a Monster from Outer Space Something is amiss with the menfolk in this classic 1950s sci-fi thriller. A distraught Marge Farrell (Gloria Talbott, We're No Angels) is growing increasingly alarmed over the changes in her new husband Bill (Tom Tryon, The Cardinal), who's been acting strangely ever since their wedding night. And for good reason: Bill – and most of the men in their small town—have been taken over by sinister aliens who have arrived on planet Earth to marry human women with the hope of reviving their dying race. Marge has stumbled onto their terrifying plan and must now convince someone—anyone—to believe her…before the aliens completely inhabit the bodies of the entire male population!

Description

Breaking news from space! The bad: An intrepid captain and his men have landed on a planet where males are outlawed. The good: Some women there are eager to break the law! Queen of Outer Space is a milestone of movie camp. Eric Fleming plays the granite-jawed leader who shares with his crew the crime of maleness. That's just the start of their troubles. The man-hating Venusian Queen (Laurie Mitchell) aims to destroy Earth once a Beta Disintegrator is operational. But a gossamer-gowned scientist (Zsa Zsa Gabor) and her curvy cohorts eye the men, and they like what they see. This bijou bauble has sets, costumes and effects from Flight to Mars, Forbidden Planet and World Without End. Have fun spotting them. Botchino!
