"Space Invasion of Lapland" aka Invasion of the Animal

Quote:
Space Invasion of Lapland (Rymdinvasion i Lappland in Sweden and Terror in the Midnight Sun internationally) is a 1959 Swedish-American black-and-white science fiction-monster film released to Swedish cinemas on August 19, 1959.

The film was produced by Bertil Jernberg and Gustaf Unger, directed by American Virgil W. Vogel, and stars Barbara Wilson, Robert Burton, and Stan Gester.

Written by Arthur C. Pierce, the film had most of its dialogue in English. Space Invasion of Lapland was heavily re-edited by American producer Jerry Warren and had newly filmed American sequences added. The film had its U.S. release in 1962 under the title Invasion of the Animal People as a double feature with Warren's Terror of
The Bloodhunters.

________________________________

The yeti/alien suit, is ambitious and not badly done. The face is fearsome, with long fangs in the lower jaw, and the suit is so padded to give the creature a monstrous bulk that it's very imposing.

There are only a few scenes that involve the alien spaceship, which is a bit disappointing. and I couldn't find any shots of the aliens who are supposedly controlling the creature.

If you're in the mood to sample it, here's the YouTube video.
