Comment
A woman (Kathleen Crowley) wakes up to find the city deserted. She connects with a stranger (Richard Denning) and they meet up with another couple (Virginia Grey) and try and avoid being killed by invading robots from Venus. These are probably some of the worst invading alien robots on film that are killed by a high pitched noise. However the film is much more about the interplay between strangers caught up in the invasion. This is more drama than Sci-Fi which is unusual for 1950's Sci-Fi films and whilst not a classic it is interesting beacuse of this.
