A scientist has been secretly in touch with an alien from Venus and helps them visit the Earth. His friends don't believe him and many people are more worried about a malfunctioned satellite. The electricity has gone out, but it affects everyone apart from those considered allies of the alien. "Friends" or those who seem to be under the influence of the alien?
The film makers had a very interesting time over designing the alien itself! While the script has got some philosophical chatter, the alien (who makes an appearance early on) looks like an angry carrot! The actress Beverly Garland said "That conquered the world?" in an amused way and kicked it. The king of Venus is the heavy set vegetable but it comes with deformed alien bats.
The storyline itself was quite scary but the creatures looked too silly. Despite all of this, there are some very shocking moments and also with added humour amongst the soldiers. This film was remade in 1966 under the title "Zontar, the Thing from Venus." I rate this a 3/10.
