This was the day the universe trembled before the demon forces of the killer planet!
Directed by Mario Bava
Produced by Italian International Film, Castilla Cooperativa Cinematográfica
A paranoid sci-fi horror about astronauts succumbing to alien mind control on a hostile planet, built on distrust and atmospheric dread rather than gore.
