Trivia:
The major contribution made to the American International version by Jim Danforth and Wah Chang was the giant cyclopean rodent monster. The monster's roar was actually Rodan's roar taken from Sora no daikaijû Radon (1956) (US title: "Rodan"). more

A lot scarier when I was 12 years old, but good nonetheless, 8 May 2003
Author: mgoddard from Jacksonville, FL USA

I have waited a long time to see this film on DVD, but finally got it. The sound quality is not that good either. However it did bring back memories of this frightening (to a 12 year old) movie. I have watched the DVD at least 10 times since I bought it.

There are a number of slip ups in the film. The helmet visors do not form a seal around the helmets, but my favorite is the part after they have blasted the brain and are running in the forest. In one place one astronaut trips and falls down. As the other two pick him up, you can see a huge rip in his spacesuit and you can see his white underwear.

I paid $11.00 for the DVD and it is well worth the price for this classic. Invisible Invaders is on the flip side so it is a very good deal.
