Red Planet Mars (1954) 89 Minutes Black & White. 16mm Original
in Very Good shape
This is the ScienceMonster 16mm Film Catalog's official Peter Graves Movie selection. Since we can't afford every good Peter Graves movie, and a wife and family, and since I will never find a print of The Beginning of the End, this movie will have to do. It Conquored The World used to have to do, until this turned up on eBay. The guy I bought it from was kinda miffed I won it for only $100. I quess he never watched it. But forget about that - this really is one of the best movies to come out of the early fifties. Forget about The Thing and The Day The Earth Stood Still. Those are all thinly veiled references and stupid allegories. This movie gets down to brass tacks - straighten up and fly right or God will kill you dead! I really bought this to show at church camp next summer. If you are tired of waiting for an invitation to the ScienceMonster Theater, you can watch this movie right now if you want. Right-click any of the pics to save a bigger version.
