| User ReviewVova ZOne of many repackaged Russian sci-fi's. Way ahead of their time but aged into something that could never be re-created. Everything a tin-toy rocket or robot ever promised, this film delivers. |
| User ReviewMa NPlease please please.. do see it!! Please... |
| User ReviewFilmGrinder S"The future of mankind is being decided behind closed doors"-Narriator (Peter Bogdanovich) Another recycled film, from cheapy film producer, Corman. |
| User ReviewAllan CWeirdo re-edit of the 1965 film "Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet," which itself was a re-edit of a 1962 Soviet era science fiction film that had been dubbed into English, but this 1968 re-edit was done for Roger Corman by a young Peter Bogdanovich ("The Last Picture Show" "Paper Moon"), though billed as Derek Thomas, who added new footage of Mamie Van Doren. The story takes place in the distant future of 1998, where a group of astronauts land on Venus to kill a pterodactyl-like creature that's worshiped by the planet's seductive women, led by VanDoren. The pterodactyl was in the original version, but Bogdanovich added the women, but unfortunately to little effect. The film does have novelty value in it being one of producer Corman's sillier than most cash grabs, taking a film he already owned and adding sex to sell the movie again, along with it being an early work by Bogdanovich, but outside of that there's really not a lot to suggest here. FUN FACT: Bogdanovich provided the film with its Orson Welles-like narration. |
| User ReviewKevin M. WPretend salaciousness hiding under the cover of supposedly serious science fiction, some astronaut types venture to Planet Venus, exploring and all that. They would've found some blondie babes swimming around if they'd've bothered to have looked, but they don't, and so that's the movie: some science types in globe-head spacesuits don't discover blondie Venus Babes ...it's kind've disappointing. Blah. |
| User ReviewPrivate Umamie van doren is perfect in this sci-fi, i died of laughter watching this! |
| User ReviewOscar HSo BAD it's good, at least from a curuisity standpoint. Mamie Van Doren is in it so there is some good scenery. |
| User ReviewBilly SThe exact same movie as 'Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet' but with a few extra scenes and a shorten plot. The new scenes do very little to add to the film other than giving a pretty well explanation at the being we see at the end of the original cut. This film should honestly just be called the director's cut or something, it's barely worth watching if you already seen Prehistoric Planet. |
| User ReviewAnthony VThis is Ed Wood kind of bad. He would have been proud of the way the footage of the explorers was recycled from an earlier Russian movie, and the women added. All the dialogue is dubbed, and all the monsters rubber, and the film is 78 very slow minutes long. |
