Classic sci-fi reinvention of The Tempest, it's horrendously cheesy by todays standards and oozes 50s kitsch and sexism, but it still entertains. Interesting to see a young Leslie Neilsen pre-production line spoofery and the "monsters from the id" idea is fun in a Twilight Zone kind of way.

The movie so many have stolen from. This really is science fiction and is well done. Monsters from the Id. Anne Francis "comes of age". Brain boosting technology. Robot moonshiner. Required viewing for scifiers.

A classic sci-fi film that blends adventure, some inventive special effects, and memorable characters. It even manages to give personality and character to a robot, which is no small task.

One of the best, if not the best 50's sci fi movies. It has a great story (pre Star Trek) with the typical fifties feel (bad acting, beautiful women, bold colors and no sense of future technology or style). True sci fi fans will appreciate.
