MST material
I enjoyed the movie for its '50s campiness but couldn't keep myself from laughing at times at some of its unintended funny scenes. For example, after Col. Calder is released from the hospital, he meets with Maj. Gen. McIntosh in the Maj. Gen.'s office. In previous scenes, Calder is hatless while McIntosh usually has his Army cap on. But in this scene, all of a sudden McIntosh is hatless and Calder is wearing an Army cap. It just looks like McIntosh had said to Calder, "You've been on a long and life-threatening space mission, and it's probably been awhile since you've worn an Army cap. Here, you can wear mine." It's just funny, is all. Then later, during the scene in the barn when Ymir attacks the farmer, the film cuts back to all the guys, with guns drawn, watching the attack going on.....except there among the guys is that same farmer! Ooops, editing mistake. Anyway, it was a good time to watch this thing, and I liked it when Ymir was on the loose and everybody was feeling threatened, and then the Col. and the dame would take time out to flirt, i.e., "Look out, you might be killed.....but I sure wish we could find time to be alone!"
Okay, one more before I go....after Ymir escapes from the lab at the zoo, everyone runs out. including the dame and her grandpa. Run away, they are told. So everybody hightails it out of there. Then the Col. jumps in a car and drives around following Ymir to and fro. Finally, the Col pulls his car over and gets out and walks over to....the dame and her grandpa! So, just where did the Col. go? I mean, the dame and grandpa were on foot and they got to their destination before the Col., who was in a car! Maybe he stopped off for a fine Italian meal before continuing the pursuit....
