FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER 1965 (DARK SKY)

I don't care what anyone says, this is one of my favorite films of all time. Yes there are plot holes which are very large, but who cares, this is nothing but fun. In 1965 American films were losing their innocence and this is the last gasp of an innocent age.
Invaders from space land on Earth in Puerto Rico and kidnap women for breeding. They have also shot down a rocket with an android astronaut on board and he becomes a malfunctioning monster who goes on a killing spree until he is found by his creators and somewhat fixed.
In the meantime he is captured by the aliens and actually brings about their destruction while fighting the aliens pet monster named Mull.
Mull is quite an impressive looking monster and scared me when I was a kid watching this thing. James Karen, Marilyn Hanold, Nancy Marshall and Lou Cutell are very good with their parts.
Cool music, lovely women, and a great monster make this a winner all the way.
