"The Cosmic Monster" (AKA "The Strange World Of Planet X"1958)
-Forrest Tucker
Plot: IMDB
At a small, rural British lab, monomaniac Dr. Laird and his staff create ultra-intense
magnetic fields. Inexplicably, the apparatus seems to be affecting distant objects, and to be drawing "extra power" from...somewhere. One night, after a "freak" storm, strange and deadly things start happening in Bryerly Woods, and a strange man from "a long way off" appears in the district...concerned about Laird's pulling down disaster from the skies.
Phantom's Review: Dull little Sci-Fi film. Too much talk, too little action. The monster FX are just extreme close ups of insects. Not worth the effort
