Member Rating:  
Perhaps the most flagrantly re-packaged and re-titled no-budget project from notorious schlockmeister Al Adamson, this goofy melange culls footage from no less than three separate films -- including a Filipino caveman/monster movie (shot in black-and-white, then tinted fruity colors by Adamson) and the sci-fi flicks Unknown Island and One Million B.C.. If a plot can be detected amid this car crash of disassembled storylines, it might involve the efforts of a scientist (John Carradine) to send an expedition to a distant planet of space-vampires to halt their invasion of Earth. Once there, the astronauts don't find any vampires, but they do come across legions of oversized iguanas and rowdy Filipino cavemen. Aside from the distinction of having distinguished cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond behind the camera, this film holds some kind of record for the most re-titlings in movie history. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

    Ok the opening of the movie reminded me of Night of the Living Dead but with vampires. Then it turned into a sci-fi space movie. That part seemed alright until I saw the creatures on the planet the rocket landed on. OMG the elephant covered with a carpet looking fabric. Then what looked like rams were covered in the same thing. Then the reptile fight was something else! Did I mention the dinosaurs?? Check out the uniforms of the crew complete with ascot! This would have been awesome on MST3000! Boy would they have had a field day! You do have to see this movie at least once to complete your library!!! ~ Susan L.
