VOYAGE TO THE PLANET OF PREHISTORIC WOMEN(1968)
In the set: 100 Greatest Sci-Fi Classics
A lot of the shots in this are re-used from
"Voyage To The Prehisoric Planet" & "Battle
Beyond The Sun", which both were edited from
a Russian film, "Nebo Zovyot"! This one's about
a man telling his story of how he ended up
infatuated with a Venesion woman!! Ya gotta
love the many scientific blunders in
this! B-
A review from an IMDb.com customer:
"Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women"
concerns a party of cosmonauts attempting
to rescue another group on Venus. Along the
way they encounter prehistoric monsters and
other perils, and there is an intelligent
robot. This part of the film is really an
excellently made Russian sci-fi film called
"Storm Planet", while the other part concerns
a band of telepathic Venusian cave girls
led by Mamie Van Doren, who worship a
pterosaur named Tera and watch the struggles
of the cosmonauts from afar; this other
part was spliced in by P. Bogdonovitch
(at R. Corman's behest? I'm not sure),
and is ridiculous camp. I've seen two
versions of this film (not including
the Russian original), one without
the Van Doren sequences. Although it
is regarded as a psychotronic/cult/camp
type of film, the classiness of the
original manages to come through most
of it, and the pacing benefits from
the exclusion of a stereotypically
sexist subplot involving a female
crewmember's misplaced patriotic
zeal. - junagadh75
