Women of the Prehistoric Planet is a relatively enjoyable, cheesy sci-fi movie from the 1960’s. Low budget, bad special effects. With an interesting story. But there actually aren’t any women on the prehistoric planet.

I’ve just finished watching The Magic Carpet with my children, having DVR’ed it earlier. How can I describe this movie? The word “cheesy”comes to mind; it’s a very typical Arabian Nights-style story, with an evil man overthrowing (and killing) the Caliph of the land, in order to seize control. The Caliph’s wife, however, manages to send their baby son to safety on the “magic carpet” where he’s raised by a relative, without knowing his true identity. He (John Agar) grows up, and on his own leads a Robin Hood-style insurrection against the evil, oppressive Caliph.

When stock footage attacks! Actually, Invisible Invaders is a better movie than that. It’s clear upon watching that it was done on a shoestring budget, with ample use of stock footage, footage from documentaries, etc. The basic plot has literally invisible invaders. Aliens, who previously ignored Earth, but have now taken notice since the atomic age. And they demand surrender to their invisible empire. Or they will animate corpses and use them to cause vast devastation while being immune to any damage. A small group of scientists and one military man need to band together, find the aliens’ weakness, and fight back.
