*Spoiler/plot- War between the planets (Il Pianeta Errante), 1966. When a series of Earthly disasters plague the planet, scientists learn that the cause is a rogue barren planet set on a collision course with Earth. Astronaut teams are sent up to investigate and stop the planet's trajectory. Once landing on the planet, they find out the world has a life of it's own.
*Special Stars- Giacomo Rossi-Stuart, Ombretta Colli, Enzo Fiermonte, Halina Zalexska, Goffredo Unger, Peitro Matellanza, John Bartha.
*Theme- Courage and gallantry in the face of death is important to save lives.
*Trivia/location/goofs- Italian. Midway through the landing on the space station 'Gamma", the station's doors change from automatic doors that open horizontally sideways to vertical ones. In the spacewalk scenes you can clearly see the hip-wire harness that simulates weightlessness in space. Also in the vacuum of space, the characters keep talking about wind and it's effects on floating astronauts and spacecrafts. There is no wind in space.
*Emotion- This film is a travesty of many inter cut space scenes with little connective plot points to make any interesting sense to the viewer. Once the space team gets aboard the revolving space station, the plot then goes dead fully slow and takes too much time for anything to move the plot along. This film is a waste of your attention, but is a good film for other filmmakers to 'smash-up' into a better sci-fi movie because of it's good production values. The dubbed English dialog is laughable in it's ridiculous comments.
