Man From Planet X

Consumer Rating : Rating : 3.00/5
Price Range : $5.50 - $9.42

A new planet is sighted in the sky, and it's spinning very close to the Isle of Berrey, Scotland. Professor Elliot (Raymond Bond) and his lovely daughter, Enid (Margaret Fielding) set up headquarters in a remote castle amid Berrey's foggy moors to see what happens. Reporter John Lawrence (Robert Clarke) heads over for the story; he and Enid discover a spaceship and its one inhabitant while they're walking around in the fog after dinner. At first the little "man" seems to be friendly, but when the Professor's evil assistant (William Schallert) abuses him, the creature vanishes and soon after townspeople start disappearing as well. A level-headed constable (Roy Engel) works with Lawrence in getting some answers, but their communication with the mainland gets cut off, and Planet X starts spinning closer and closer.

The Man From Planet X

The Man From Planet X


Daring reporter John Lawrence (Robert Clarke) narrates this gripping tale of an alien's attempt to take over a tiny village in Scotland. As the story opens, Lawrence is visiting his old friend, Professor Elliot, who's made the startling discovery of a new planet that is approaching Earth at breakneck speed. Soon Elliot's lovely daughter, Enid, has spotted a mysterious craft in the middle of the moor. Lawrence and Elliot decide to investigate, inexplicably allowing the clearly evil Dr. Mears to assist. Lost the plot? Not to worry! The Man from Planet X cheerfully helps slower viewers by offering expository dialogue as frequently as humanly possible. "Look!" says Elliot, "It seems as if he's trying to turn that knob to the right, but doesn't have the strength or coordination," as the alien tries to turn the knob to the right, but doesn't have the strength or coordination. All seems lost as the alien begins using telepathy to control the local villagers. Luckily for the Earth, the alien's superior mind-control powers are not matched with superior common sense--he never bothers to give his slaves such crucial commands as "Don't tell the enemy my entire plan!" or "Let me know if any outsiders show up!" or "By the way, don't follow the commands of anybody but me!" A guaranteed hoot of an evening. --Ali Davis

In this very early space invasion sci-fi flick, aliens from outer space and fear from beyond our galaxy strike terror into the hearts of mankind! On the coast of Scotland, where there is enough fog to hide an alien landing, an astronomer discovers that one has actually occurred. But it's soon realized that the creature, the "Man from Planet X," has definite plans ? not for friendship but for domination ? unleashing a kind of "out-of-this-world" havoc the villagers have never seen!
