Invisible Invaders / Journey to the Seventh Planet

What's That Smell, oh it's this little piece of cheese from the past, that I really like.......2007-04-18

Fond Memories of after school movies and rainy days flooded me as I watched these moldy oldies again. Sure they both stink and are bottom of the barrel sci-fi movies, but I happen to like the bottom of this barrel very much.
The feeling of being a kid again as I watched these with my sons was great and even though they said the fx's were bad, they had fun with the movie. Not for all taste, but if you grew up in the 60's and 70's or you are a young person looking for some cheesy fun you can stop looking and get this set.

Charming B-movie with potential.......2007-04-05

I have currently only watched one half of the double feature: Journey to the seventh planet.

The movie has an actually exciting plot which, as in every other B-movie, is being totally neglected and drives on without any real building up to anything.

The movie is however interesting for all Danes as they can recognize all the famous and belowed Danish actors of the time in some higly unordinary situations.

ESPECIALLY the fact that the danish actor Ove Sprogøe - the Danish actor who has played the most movie roles in danish filmhistory - acording to legend for many years refused to have played the part Barry'o'Sullivan in this movie makes it more fun to watch.

"Invisible Invaders"

You can't see me

It is the 50's and Dr. Karol Noymann (John Carradine) is messing around with atomics and gets irradiated. His carcass is buried. His friend Dr. Adam Penner (Philip Tonge) and co-worker decides his demise is not from any radiation but from trying to use it for military purposes.

Invisible beings who own the universe figure it is time to invade earth as they are getting too uppity with their new found atomics and rockets. So the give Dr. Adam Penner self comfiest pacifist the chance to spread the news of surrender or die. To get their point across they barrow Dr. Karol Noymann's carcass for a farewell performance.

The movie has all the standard sci-fi clichés and formula where the girl half betrothed to the wimp second in command really goes for the strong willed military type.

Lots of stock film and a "Plan 9" feel make this a film classic. No mater how campy if your are a kid this is one spooky movie.

warning about "journey to the seventh planet".......2005-11-05

when i first saw "journey to the seventh planet" on tv, it was a very good sci fi movie and one of the best parts of the movie was towards the end when one of the astronauts attacks the brain and the brain absorbs the astronaut. they showed the astronaut being absorbed in the original movie, which was pretty grusome, but they show none of the absorbtion on the dvd. the best part of the movie and it was cut out. all you see during this part is the brain and you just hear the sounds of the absortion. too bad they lost this part.
