Title: Conquest of Space (1955) Post by: Scott on February 27, 2005, 09:32:54 PM CONQUEST OF SPACE (1955) - This film couldn't find an audience today, but it may have been a spectaclular film in the 50's with the special effects by George Pal. The film is also in Technicolor and the surface of Mars is neat. In the story the flight commander goes nuts and attempts to ruin the mission. The film also has some humorous moments by a guy with a Brooklyn accent. If your an old Sci-Fi fan you will like this one.
