Alien brainteasers

Too many rockets seem to be going astray lately. Combine this with mysterious lights in the sky, and you have some suspicious scientists. This is explained early on in the movie when recently married Dr. Marvin (Hugh Marlowe) and Carol Marvin (Joan Taylor) are making thinly valid romantic overtures, and they are approached by (you guessed it) a flying saucer. What can this encounter mean? What are the consequences if they do not figure it out soon, as in "Earth vs. the Flying Saucers”? Why brain teasers? Watch when Maj. Huglin, Liaison Officer (Donald Curtis), is foolish enough to look up when he is inside the saucer. This movie has just about everything you need for a good sci-fi film. It has a 50s feel (probably because it is a 50s movie.) It has Ray Harryhausen effects Vs nondescript CGI. And you recognize Hugh Marlowe from “The Day the Earth Stood Still”. At one point, you can say Don’t look up (oops, too late). More to the point, it is just downright fun to watch.
