If you agree to let a foreign scientist build a rocket ship behind your house, you pretty much deserve whatever trouble comes your way. http://www.atomicmonsters.com/missiletothemoon.htm (http://www.atomicmonsters.com/missiletothemoon.htm)
Fun old science fiction film! The giant slow-motion spider marionettes are a hoot, and you're right about how slow they are. Just walking away at a leisurely pace would easily avoid them. Crawling away would easily avoid them. Heck, an old man with a walker could get away from those things.
About the weird jackal demon that sits in judgment of your evacuation recreation, I'm at a loss for words.
Considering your fertile imagination, that's high praise indeed! Thank you for allowing B-movie reviewers to post our links here. I always come here to get rejuvenated by fellow creative minds. Badmovies.org Forum is like the Cantina in Star Wars and you're the bartender.
Thank you, sir. You help keep me motivated to keep writing, because I definitely feel burned out at times. It will get better after I am retired from the Marine Corps and the kids are older, but these last 7 years have been busy. I've started taking some time here and there to work on hobbies and enjoying other b-movie reviews to keep from getting so burned out.
