They Came from Beyond Space

Extremely Underrated and Unfairly Criticized by quick Haters that consider this an Easy Target for Ridicule and let loose. Truth is the Movie is comparatively Slick, and has Gorgeous Colorful Sets. The Director Freddie Francis makes Every Shot Count.

There are Clever Angles and the Interesting Things going on. May be Inexpensive but is Impressive Nonetheless. The Look of the Film, especially the Interiors Remind of Mario Bava, extremely Sweetened. It has a Rich Sheen and is so Glossy it almost Slides Off the Screen.

The Story is a Familiar One leading to an awfully Saccharine and Disappointing Ending, but again, the Sets are a Wow. The Costumes and Props used throughout are sometimes Silly, Yes, but Not Without a Certain Goofy Charm. The Fight Scenes, and there are a Few, seem Out of Place but are Stunt Worthy and Visceral.

The Movie's biggest and Glaring Downer is the Terrible Music and is the Kind of Thing that Elevators made Famous and is a Square Version of Trendy Hip.

Overall, Recommended for Fans of Eye Candy and a Love for Big Ideas on a Small Budget and some Pros Behind the Camera that Make it all Work.
