Viewing Notes

A really well done sci-fi film that leans more towards the science (for its time) with some great miniature work and set design. It spends a little too much time establishing some character motivations but overall moves pretty quickly through its lengthy runtime.

The disc is part of the great box set from Kino Lorber and the 2K restoration print is in great shape, with only a small bit near the end suffering from more severe scratches and wear.
