DEVIL GIRL FROM MARS (1954)


Devil Girl from Mars — Crazy cool British sci-fi B movie fun from 1954! I posted a youtube video of this before, but I had to post this way-cool GIF I made from the movie. Enjoy gang! What I said in the other post:I’ve just finished watching Devil  Girl from Mars,  and I f@cking loved it! I had never heard of this movie before and I’m  fairly well versed in 1950s B sci-fi. With a title like Devil  Girl from Mars,  a sexy vinyl clad Martian woman that smacks of dominatrix,  and one of  the most awesome 1950s sci-fi robots that I have ever seen, it’s like  this movie was made specifically for me. It has a Twilight Zone feel to it (the 1959–1964 original Rod Serling original tv series),  centers around a small but isolated group of people, and has a  relatively highbrow storyline with fairly smart dialog for this sort of B  sci-fi film. Also of important note to any of my fellow geeks that know who Gerry Anderson is. He’s credited as sound editor on this movie under the name Gerald  Anderson. 100 robo-points to any of you who know who he is without  internet assistance ;) My synopsis:A Martian spaceship is damaged and thrown off course  when it enters Earth’s atmosphere and has to make an emergency landing  in a small town in Scotland.A small group of people take shelter  in the town pub and are trapped inside a force field created by Nyah  the female martian. The group learns that a Martian cataclysmic civil  war between the sexes has annihilated Mar’s entire male population. They  also learn that Nyah is on a mission to collect Earth males to  impregnate the surviving female Martians to ensure the survival of the  Martian race and the eventual invasion and conquering of Earth. Beware human males of Earth alien females are scheming to be your baby mamas! ~Joe

Película dirigida por David McDonald en 1954, la película trata sobre una marciana que aterriza con su platillo volante en Escocia debido a un fallo en el cálculo del espesor de la atmósfera, lo que produjo que en vez de en Londres aterrizara en los Highlands. Según cuenta Nyah (la marciana), en Marte hubo una guerra de sexos (literal), lo que produjo que las (supuestamente) hembristas ganaran y casi extinguieran a los hombres. Ese hecho produjo que la tasa de natalidad disminuyera vertiginosamente y por ello Nyah viaja hasta la Tierra en busca de buenos machos alfa para utilizarlos como sementales. Como se muestra en la película, en Marte hay una tecnología de la leche pero aún no controlaban el tema de las células madre…

Tanto ella como el robot que lleva a bordo de la nave, son capaces de disparar unos rayos de luz que hacen desaparecer cualquier tipo de objeto dejando sólo una leve columna de humo.
