A towering classic of 1950s sci-fi horror cheese. It's more fun, more memorable and certainly more influential than the handful of big-budget sci-fi movies of the era.

It's a wonderful little horror thriller that will whet the appetites of fans that love claustrophobic genre pictures.
March 08, 2008
One of the best sci-fi flicks of the '50s; the basis for 'Alien.'
September 26, 2001
Considering the budget constraints the film was operating under, this film nevertheless proves to be an entertaining one.
August 09, 2007
An excellent claustrophobic alien tale that debatably inspired "Alien"

As with Alien and Jaws, for example, the most frightening things about this creature are the things that we don't see.

Unintentionally funny low-budget 'Fifties horror effort. ("Mars is almost as big as Texas," one character thoughtfully muses at a point. "Maybe it's got monsters.")
May 31, 2006
Proudly displays all of the limitations of its bargain-basement budget.

In tone, it's really the predecessor of James Cameron's gung-ho sequel Aliens.

Combination science fiction film and thriller is an early look at space travel on film.
