Queen of Outer Space
Four astronauts crash land on the female-only planet of Venus and join Zsa Zsa Gabor in her revolt against the evil queen. Allied Artists’ 1958 colour Z-movie is an attempt at a spoof, but it is impossible to distinguish from the films it tries to make fun of. 2/10

20 Million Miles to Earth
US astronauts bring back a creature from Venus to Italy, where it breaks loose, grows and runs amok in Rome. Ray Harryhausen’s memorable monster elevates this poorly written 1957 programmer. 6/10

Croisières sidérales
A company offers “time trips” 25 years into the future through the science of time dilation in space. It’s a passable entertainment romp, but this French 1942 comedy fails to make anything interesting out of the intriguing premise. 5/10
Scifist.
