ALL SCI-FI

[Bud Brewster]

________

An airliner is shifted into another dimension so that several scientists among the passengers can be put on trial by "future generations" for endangering Earth with the new super-bomb they've developed.

United Artist didn't budget enough money to give this interesting concept a fair chance. The cast includes Paula Raymond (Beast from 20,000 Fathoms), Craig Hill, Dayton Lummis, and Nancy Hale. Directed by Reginald LeBorg.

I think it's funny that the poster reads "Jetliner Hijacked!" when it's a plot point that they're on a prop plane, not a jetliner.

The blind woman is played by Meg Wyllie, who was the Keeper Talosian in the first Star Trek pilot, and also Granny Gordon in The Last Starfighter, amongst many many roles.

That's funny about the poster! I guess the poster artist decided that the phrase Prop-driven Passenger Plane Hijacked just didn't sound snazzy enough.

I LOVE Granny in The Last Starfighter.
