This legendarily campy sci-fi epic (shot in color and CinemaScope, and rather lavish for a sci-fi film of this period) concerns a team of astronauts (all men -- this was 1958, you know) who are drawn off course and land on the planet Venus, only to discover it's populated entirely by beautiful women! The space travelers spend a lot of time drooling over their new hosts, dressed in highly practical mini-skirts, but the Venusian queen (
Laurie Mitchell
) does not much care for her visitors and wants to see them executed. However, not everyone on the planet takes such a hard line against the male gender. One of the Venusians is played by
Zsa Zsa Gabor
in what is probably the highlight of her film career; the original story was written by
Ben Hecht
. The producers helped stretch their budget by borrowing costumes and props from a number of other films, including spacesuits from
Forbidden Planet
, a spaceship from
Flight To Mars
and sets from
World Without End
(which was set on Mars, not Venus, though the differences must have escaped the film's scientific advisors).
