"I had forgotten how much I enjoyed watching this sci-fi film. I am so glad that I sat down to watch it again.The plot and special effects really are ahead of its time. Leslie Nielsen and Walter Pidgeon take the lead in this high concept adventure sci-fi drama. The two men, along with a crew of explorers, land on a planet and find the remaining two people from a colony living remarkably well, but hiding a dark secret. Not long after the expedition starts, a seemingly unstoppable monster starts killing off the explorers. Those left must figure out what to do next. "

"7.5/10. Groundbreaking in its day, cheesy by today's standards. Unique soundtrack. Template for so many space B-films to follow."
