When the local merchant/pimp says, "I have some very young girls. Whatever you want" and the main character responds, "What about an automobile?": The line I was looking for by the pimp/merchant was, "Sure, I have obtained animals for sex, why not machinery. Whatever makes you feel good."
Perry Rhodan is a german Sci-Fi series that started in the early sixities and is STILL running with a new issue EVERY WEEK. Apart from a few names and the general setup (Rhodan flies to the moon and meets Thora and Crest) this movie has no connection at all with its "source material". Every true Perry Rhodan fan hates this movie with a passion.
Well, there is at least one similarity... In the original source material, the alien spaceship also was spherical. ;) Besides that, there really is not much else. It's also worth noting, that this flick was shown on "Schlefaz" (basicly the German "Mystery Science Theatre 3000")
Mission Ziggy Stardust: Instead of Thora, they discover David Bowie on the moon. However, David Bowie being David Bowie, no one finds this particularly unusual or surprising.
This movie was great. I loved how Thora couldn't make up her mind whether she understood how copulation worked or not and how she goes back and forth between being interested in it and at the same time disgusted by the "primitive" humans. I felt like this was supposed to be a James Bond rip-off and someone said "we need aliens!". Italian writing at its best!
The theme about aliens having evolved to abandon physical sex, and then been reluctantly persuaded into liking it by the hero is a recurring one. Seen most famously in Barbarella, in which Barbarella when first introduced to the forgotten art of sex, uses it to persuade other alien beings to have it with her. Other notable such persuations are in Something is out there, where Ta'ra initially knows only about hand touching hand, but learns there's a whole lot more. And I will count in Lenina Huxley in Demolition Man, though she is not an alien but the setting is alien to John Spartan, and us.
0:210:28 For some reason the two astronauts’ file photos make them look like supermarionette puppets from Captain Scarlet or Thunderbirds 😄 Edit: 0:41 And the robot’s helmet-head resembles a Sontaran from Dr Who 😳
Italian 60s sci-fi is always great fun. You should try '2+5 Mission Hydra' aka 'Star Pilot' (1966) - it's sillier than this and just as wild as 'The Wild Wild Planet'!
"That's the end of a lot of evil men" // "And anyone else in the vicinity" lmao (^-^) I like Thora's Michael Bayvian levels of destruction here, honestly. Its like she's trying to make up for all the damsels-in-distress in other movies from the era. "Best blow up as many people as possible, _as quickly as possible;_ don't know when another woman will get the chance to do so in a movie like this," lol.
An alien space girl for a date? There’s so many to choose from: - Matilda May from *Lifeforce* - Princess Aura from *Flash Gordon* - Ann Francis from *Forbidden Planet* - Raquel Welch’s daughter from *Cocoon* - Jane Fonda from *Barbarella* - Seven of Nine from *Voyager* _(after_ the Borg implant removal) - any of the Italian women from the *War of the Robots* movies - Caroline Munro from *Starcrash* - the brunette robot from the Ruk episode in *Star Trek: TOS*
A man could do worse than learn dance technique from Yvonne Craig's Marta in the Star Trek: TOS episode "Whom Gods Destroy"...or shape-shifting from Catherine Schell's Maya in Season 2 of Space: 1999...or rulership from Mari Blanchard's Queen Alura of Venus in 1952's Abbott and Costello go to Mars...to name just three possibilities from a time-space continuum-wide range. (Runners-up include learning hunting technique from Louise Jameson's Leela in Seasons 14 & 15 of Doctor Who, or close-combat technique from Rebecca Ferratti's Talena in 1987's Gor, or astro-diplomacy from Cheryl Buchanan's Princess Belstarr in 1979's Escape from Galaxy 3, or... ) 🤤 🤩 🥴
What film alien would I like to hook up with? Kirstie Alley's Saavik from The Wrath of Khan. I would have said Natasha Henstridge's alien from Species, but........
@@keithulhu No way. Thora is attractive. I looked up Sofia Boutella: borderline homely, horrible chin and jawline for a woman, hideous eyebrows. Looks like the typical model that a gay man in the fashion or cosmetics industry would hire.
Yes, good sense does go out the window with this movie. There was an Italian scifi comedy that was actually pretty good. I remember the name as "The UFO". It centered around an Italian police sergeant who was investigating a reported UFO landing.
The movie in question was titled THE FLYING SAUCER (1964) and was directly released to U.S. TV in a dubbed version. It starred ace Italian actor Alberto Sordi (playing four different roles!) along with Monica Vitti.
Someone has probably already mentioned this but I was frankly shocked to find out that Perry Rhodan is not only the most successful sci-fi novel series in history, it is also the longest continuous story in human history. Yet nobody really heard of it, even in Germany.
Thank you for getting to this! I have frankly been checking out dozens of your reviews, but this is the one that wore me down to hit Subscribe. My favorite part is the opening credits song, something called "Seli," by the same singer who made Ennio Morricone scores so immortal.
Film alien to hook up with? Does Anne Francis from Forbidden Planet qualify? Her character was probably born on Altair IV, so technically extraterrestrial, right? Failing that, Starcrash's Caroline Munro. She's definitely not from Earth, even if she's been to the center of it. :)
And doesn't Anne look great in that outer space mini-skirt? You bet she does. Makes some guys wanna helplessly stammer "Hammina--hammina-hammina--hammina!!!"
@@deodane4065 We had that in France too, through "Fleuve Noir" I think. It's classic SF but quite enjoyable. The demented comic book (which uses famous comic bookey figures such as The Thing in other roles) was published by a small company.
I remember seeing Archon falling out the corpse chute into space ("Did I say Corpse Chute? I meant 'Innocense Tube') when I was 9 or 10, and was just fascinated by that for some dumb reason. I spent decades trying to track down the film and when I finally found it and watched it I was....considerably more underwhelmed than you were here. Wow.

I saw this movie when I was little and have always had a soft spot for it. Thora is hot and I like the soundtrack.

Although it always looked like there was some footage missing. I wish I could find a copy of the Italian original (with subs) just for comparison with the dubbed English version.

@@SomePeopleCallMeWulfman I guess the hardcover books are more widespread than the Heftroman edition they are compiled of.

First Read the novel series perry rodan , peace lord of the universe back in high school ( vol 1 and 2 to start with) then a few years later, the movie popped up on late night TV, had high hopes dashed after the 30 minutes in ,but , ended enjoying it anyway!! Oddly, this compares well with another Italian space opera from this period ( possibly made by the same studio) MISSION HYDRA , it has the same off the wall , high giggly fun . PLEASE DO A REVIEW OF THIS MOVIE SOON !! 😊😊😊
This movie always makes my day, because. Thora. Her responses and actions are the most reasonable. She is also in Cry of the Banshee with Vincent Price.
I would like to hook up with Gary Seven from the Star Trek TOS episode "Assignment: Earth" (I've always had a crush on the late, great Robert Lansing).
... as a fan of Perry Rhodan I have heard of this movie and was thrilled for finally get to see it - only to see the story smashed to pieces by this lame attempt at Sci-Fi. I wish a remake of this would come to the big screen ...
There are many hot aliens I'd gladly hook up with, but top pick would be princess Irulan in the 1984 Dune movie, portrayed by Virginia Madsen. I almost named Jacqueline Lowell in Femalien (1996) but then I remembered she was one of the earthlings and the femalien herself was portrayed by Venesa Talor. Darn, she wasn't one of the aliens in Venus Descending, either. I guess runner up would be Barbarella by Jane Fonda. Closely followed by Ta'Ra portrayed by Maryam D'Abo in Something is out there, and Victoria Vetri in Invasion of the Bee Girls.
So a Perry Rhodan movie does exist, sort of but it's a cheesy Italian production taking huge liberties with the source material, bummer. Thora was pretty smoking hot though but has a mean streak a mile wide!

For all of it's flaws, this is a really fun movie to watch, especially since it showcases the awesome Essy Persson, my favorite alien
Filmed in the Canary Islands. Anne Smyrner is gorgeous, as usual.
There are many hot aliens I'd gladly hook up with, but top pick would be princess Irulan in the 1984 Dune movie, portrayed by Virginia Madsen. I almost named Jacqueline Lowell in Femalien (1996) but then I remembered she was one of the earthlings and the femalien herself was portrayed by Venesa Talor. Darn, she wasn't one of the aliens in Venus Descending, either. I guess runner up would be Barbarella by Jane Fonda. Closely followed by Ta'Ra portrayed by Maryam D'Abo in Something is out there, and Victoria Vetri in Invasion of the Bee Girls.
I loved Maryam D'Abo in The Living Daylights. She's one of my favorite Bond Girls.

I'd hook up with Paul... I like a guy with a sense of humor.👽
So a Perry Rhodan movie does exist, sort of but it's a cheesy Italian production taking huge liberties with the source material, bummer. Thora was pretty smoking hot though but has a mean streak a mile wide!
I know this one's been up a while, but I just have to weigh in: Green Orion slave girl Marta (Yvonne Craig), Whom Gods Destroy, STTOS, hands down!
Robin, can we get a retrospective for Desiree Goukd? Pretty sure you already covered Sleepawat Camp, but that woman was an absolute sweetheart.
Lelu Dallas has my Multi-Pass, if you catch my drift.
