We have a very special place in our hearts for old sci-fi/horror hybrid films. From schlocky monsters to hammy actors, they’re just amazing to say the least. Kino Lorber is getting set to release one of these magical flicks on Blu-ray, Journey to the Seventh Planet, and we have the info and WONDROUS artwork for you right here!
Arriving on Blu-ray and DVD on April 5, 2016, 1961’s Journey to the Seventh Planet stars John “The Friggin’ Man” Agar, Greta Thyssen, and Carl Ottosen. Sidney W. Pink directs.
Special Features:
- Audio Comnentary by Film Historian Tim Lucas
Synopsis:
Newly re-mastered in HD! You Are in Space… Beyond Space! In futuristic 2001, the United Nations has sent a special team of scientists to explore Uranus. And what this interstellar crew discovers is a planet not unlike Earth–complete with a small Danish village filled with voluptuous women! But underneath the Utopian veneer is a being so powerful and so heinous that it’s using the crew’s memories against them so it can take their spaceship back to Earth–and conquer it!
Wonderfully directed by cult producer, writer, and director Sidney W. Pink (Reptilicus, The Angry Red Planet) and featuring campy performances by John Agar (Invisible Invaders, Miracle Mile) and Greta Thyssen (Terror is a Man) with an amazing title song by Mitchell Tableporter (aka Teepee Mitchell), this Danish and American co-production is now considered to be one of the greatest cult classics of all time.
