As a kid it was one of my favorites. I have it on video. Got it from Rhino Records years ago. Space travel was all new then and a kid's imagination just ran wild.

I was always happy when it showed up on TV back in the 60s. "A good time was had by all" when one of these quasi-sf films played.

Did someone remark that some rubber was cut in the same manner as marks made by the monster, when they were trying to figure out what was happening?

I loved these cheesy '50s sci-fi/horror flicks when I was a kid back in the '60s. Too bad they almost never run on TV anymore.

I have been collecting these old Sci-Fi flicks for a while now. I am proud to say I own this movie on DVD. Now every day can be Saturday Matinee day!

No kidding. Where on earth did you find it?

Sorry for taking so long to reply. I found it at brand new at Amazon. I don't remember what I paid, but I'm sure it was under $15.00. Hope this (belatedly) helps!

Enjoy! :)
