Trend setter sci-fi from 1965
I saw this film in it’s 1965 American release, and at the time I was not overly impressed. It was obviously made on a low budget, the dialog dubbing is bad (although far superior to some other Italian imports I have seen), the acting alternates between wooden (Barry Sullivan) and outrageously overdone (i.e., “gravity effects”, the reaction of the actor who smashes the “meteor deflector”, numerous fear reaction shots of crew members). Time has proven that it has become a trend setter for numerous subsequent sci-fi films (most notably Ridley Scott’s “Alien” (1979)). I recently viewed it again 37 years after it’s release, and the similarities to “Alien” are unmistakable. The attentions of the crews of both films are attracted by mysterious radio signals originating from an unexplored world. The horseshoe shape of the ships in POTV resembles that of the wrecked alien spacecraft in “Alien”. There are similar shots of the ship’s landing gear in both films. Both crews find ancient wrecked spacecraft and skeletal remains of giant aliens on the planets they land upon. There is an unknown predatory alien presence in both films. Lots of gore footage exists in both films too, although POTV unarguably started this trend (alas, is there any recent sci-fi film that does not fall to this temptation?).I cannot believe that all these similarities are coincidental, and I suspect that Dan O’Bannon must have been heavily influenced by POTV, whether he realized it or not.

The use of lighting and color are also noteworthy. POTV still looks good today due to colorful exterior scenes (forgive the somewhat clumsy use of composite shots of the crew in a few scenes set against an obviously miniature landscape). Please also forgive the overzealous use of the zoom lens, which had just been developed at the time. One big demerit in set design comes from a scene inside the wrecked alien spacecraft. A prominently-featured prop appears to be the taillight lens from a 1957 Packard, complete with the backup light lens below it. It is positioned vertically in the shot, and perhaps the set designer was hoping that Italian audiences would not recognize it. Another detractor is the almost unlimited amount of area inside the ships. No ceilings are visible, and the various compartments look as big as football fields when compared to realistic spacecraft design criteria.

I found this to be an entertaining if somewhat flawed film, certainly more enjoyable than it was when I first watched it in 1965. It deserves a vote of 6/10.

Underrated Classic
A spaceship lands on a mysterious planet to investigate what happened to another ship. The crew find themselves controlled by strange forces and having to fend off the reanimated corpses of their comrades. Visually-striking exercise in style from director Mario Bava. It’s an incredibly atmospheric sci-fi horror blend with some of the best visuals of any movie from the ’60s. The sets, the costumes, the props are all imaginative and inspired creations. It’s not for all tastes, however. There is dubbing, there is a thin story, and there are absolutely no vampires anywhere. If you are the type of person who nitpicks movies to death, stop right there and put the DVD back in its case unwatched. This is a fun, escapist movie meant to be enjoyed as such. Just relax and give it a fair shot.
