Warning from Space
Soon, the Earth will explode! A terror which will annihilate all of humanity!
Directed by Kōji Shima
Produced by Daiei Film
A 1950s Japanese sci-fi spectacle about benevolent aliens warning Earth of apocalypse, blending earnest cosmic dread with campy tokusatsu charm and a shape-shifting alien masquerading as a pop star.
Large star-shaped aliens travel to earth in hopes of warning them about an oncoming catastrophe. To prevent panic about their appearance, one alien takes the form of a popular singer.
