That's actually pretty close to the truth. According to director Phil Tucker:
“Well, I originally envisioned the monster as a kind of robot. I talked to several people that I knew who had robot s ... |

Unfortunately I am one of those who have seen the movie, nonMST3K version, twice. The first time I was 9 or 10 and thought it was a stupid movie back then. A few months ago I had an opportunity to s ... |

I hadn't even heard of this movie until a couple of months ago when I watched this on Tubi or Roku (don't remember which one). It was decent. I agree, the cast was not A list talent (or B list, or C ... |

I saw this movie last year for the first time. Yikes!! It’s hard to believe that with the same script It Conquered the World, which I do enjoy watching, was turned into that waste of good film. |

I saw this in the theater when it came out. I really enjoyed the movie and I still do. Dan O'Herlihy was great as Grig, the copilot. I thought the CGI was animation and only figured out later what ... |

I was in the Navy when the show first aired and did not get to see it first run. One of the local stations ran reruns and I saw it after I had left the service. I enjoyed it greatly and was surprise ... |

I was a fan of the show as well. Some of the parallel earths seemed feasible and some not so. I was upset the series was cancelled but happy it got picked up by the Sci-Fi Channel. I'm a big fan of ... |
