Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

dominic velarde I saw the trailer on some sci fi trailer collection DVD recently and hunted this thing down. The trailer was all like new dense vision or some stuff I can't recall but they are all like BETTER THAN 3-D. Sisters and brothers the effects in this one ROCK cutting edge stuff for the time, and up there with star trek. The other guy I feel was WAY too harsh about this look up the director, he did A lot of visual effects and even directed GORGO! YEAH! Granted I totally luv sci fi movies, just really dig folks floatin thru space an getting into adventures. This film delivers all the goods in the so bad it's good dept, but also is just pure 60's SCI FI RAD! And not like Corman FLICKS WITH A lot OF DULL! In this they are in space right away and the adventure is full throttle. Prove me wrong.

mshelton-5 I won this movie at a White Elephant gift exchange. At first I thought that someone had put a "college made" attempt at a film in a actual film jacket..but that wasn't the case. It seemed like days of waiting for something to happen..and then when it did you wished you hadn't wasted your time. Where did they get these actors ?? They were as unanimated as the wooden seats on the space ship. I've actually considered offering movie tickets to any of my friends that could sit through the entire movie..but I doubt that I'd end up giving any away. Someone sure wasted a lot of time on this clunker. I wonder what John C. and the others were thinking when they agreed to get involved in this? As much as I dislike the film I just can't bring myself to throw it away. It's a great conversation piece and a hoot when you show it to the right crowd. Not something that the kids would want to watch..but us older folks..who have seen several low budget sci-fi attempts, find it kind of nostalgic....

Michael_Elliott Horrors of the Red Planet (1965) BOMB (out of 4) Four astronauts crash land on Mars where they walk around for an hour's worth of running time before meeting the planet's wizard (John Carradine). Here's a really bad movie that somewhat keeps you interested because you're expecting something to happen but when nothing does happen you can't help but be really upset. Carradine doesn't show up until the final ten minutes and when he does it's only his head. The rest of the cast members are equally awful as are the special effects, directing, screenplay and so on.

pnunes68 I remember seeing this movie as a kid on the "Sunday Afternoon" movie on the local station in the late 70's, but I couldn't remember the title. I knew it had to be from the 60's so IMDb helped me narrow the possibilities. The key was I remembered the astronauts finding a "Golden" road under the desert, so the "Wizard" title grabbed my eye.A Google search brought some web sites that fully describe the movie and show screen shots.I am a bit disappointed now that the actual movie does not live up to my memories of it. I remember it being kinda spooky and strange, but now it seems really stupid.I would like to see it again, too bad there doesn't seem to be a DVD yet. I wonder if it is on any movie compilation set of "B" movies.Paul
