Killers from Space1954
“The last word in science-fiction thrills!”
Directed by W. Lee Wilder
The premise
Atomic scientist/pilot Doug Martin is missing after his plane crashes on an reconnaissance mission after a nuclear test. Miraculously appearing unhurt at the base later, he is given sodium amethol, but authorities are skeptical of his story that he was captured by aliens determined to conquer the Earth with giant monsters and insects. Martin vows to use existing technology to destroy them.
Horror Vault's take
When atomic scientist Doug Martin survives a mysterious plane crash without a scratch, his superiors can't decide whether to believe his wild account of alien captors with world-conquering ambitions — or lock him up. A product of 1950s nuclear-age dread, this low-budget sci-fi chiller pits one determined man against an extraterrestrial threat that turns Earth's own creatures against us. Expect bug-eyed aliens, oversized monsters, and the kind of pulpy paranoia that defined Cold War genre cinema.
