Killers From Space - Movie Review |
|
The Killers from Space is a very low-budget sci-fi where a group of aliens, with ping-pong balls for eyes, raise an atomic scientist (played by Peter Graves) from the dead after a plane crash in order to have him spy on Earth and carry out acts of sabotage for them. Killers from Space often, justifiably, appears on lists of the worst movies of all time. Graves appears to survives the crash unhurt except for a strange scar on his chest. At the hospital, he has amnesia and does not remember what happened to him. But he acts so strangly that the doctors bring in the FBI, thinking he may be an imposter. He is cleared, but told to take some time off. Graves eventually realizes whats going on and he tries to warn mankind, but no one believes him. Marching defiantly back to the aliens' Bronson Canyon headquarters, where the slimy villains are busily syphoning off electrical power from a nearby generator, Graves vows to stop the extraterrestrials at any cost...including his own life.
