Fun Stuff

Trivia:
This film was produced directly by Allied Artists (formerly Monogram). It was made in hopes of shedding their "poverty row" image. It was given a larger budget and shot in color and Cinemascope and ran a full reel longer than their usual 60-70 minute fare. Allied Artists was able to book it under percentage contracts rather than flat rates. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: A revolver is shown that has a blown barrel due to what was said to be lack of strength in the metal as well as too strong a propellant powder. If the metal in the gun was weak, the part to fail would have been in the cylinder and frame area, not the barrel. The most likely cause of the damage that was shown would have been an obstruction in the barrel. more
Quotes:
Timmek, President of the Council: Armageddon. The slaughter of humanity. An atomic war no one wanted, but which no one had the wisdom to avoid. more

It is a little corny, 1 September 2003
Author: Kenny-36 from Long Beach, Ca

Yes this movie is a little corny, but most of the sci-fi/horror movies of that time were corny, but still fun to watch. And this movie still has a good underlining story. The astronauts find themselves in another world from the one they left, their families and homes are gone and mutants attack them. Then they find another race like their own. And after fighting the mutants and the others they work together to start to rebuild the Earth. Corny but good.
