Actors: Peter Graves, Barbara Bestar,
Frank Gerstle, James Seay, and Steve Pendleton.
Rating: 3 out of 10, This actually wasn’t
that bad. If you took out the comically enlarged eyes from the aliens and the pathetically
staged spiders and geckos this was a pretty taut sci fi mystery featuring old
Jim Phelps as a young man. There is the heavy dose of nuclear scare prevalent in
the early 1950s. A nuclear scientist is abducted by some subterranean aliens in
the middle of a nuclear bomb test. They plan on colonizing earth after everyone
is eaten by huge geckos, spiders, and cockroaches. They tell him about their
whole plan and then release him to thwart the whole thing. Well, maybe it wasn’t
that good after all. I did enjoy seeing the young Jim Phelps charging around
though.
MVP: Graves as the good doctor
