Dr. Paul Armstrong and his wife Betty are staying in a cabin in order to be close to the landing site of a meteor that Armstrong, a scientist, wants to get a closer look at. Meanwhile, two aliens have crash-landed on Earth and their pet mutant has escaped. And during all this, the evil Dr. Fleming has made himself a sexy sidekick out of forest animals (she's appropriately named Animala) and reawakened the mysterious Lost Skeleton of Cadavra.
This film requires some explanation. It's a loving homage/parody of all of those cheesy 50s sci-fi movies. Shot in the same style with an old soundtrack, deliberately ridiculous dialogue, silly props, and a nonsensical plot. Even the film's poster looks like the poster from Invaders from Mars (1953). The filmmakers obviously have a lot of love for the genre, as every detail is perfect. The film is hilariously quotable, and looks like it was a lot of fun to make.
I'm a huge fan of this movie, and even got to meet some of the cast at Comic Con in 2010!
I recommend this film to anyone who gets a kick out of the campy and the ridiculous!
