DESTINATION INNER SPACE 1966 (CHEEZY FLICKS)

The year 1966 produced some very interesting and strange films including "Cyborg 2087", "Zontar The Thing From Venus", and "Women of The Prehistoric Planet", just to name three of them, and it seems to me that films of this year have an entirely different feel and look to them. It could just be me, but I doubt it.
Destination Inner Space has just that look and feel which is something between a TV movie and a theatrical release.
This interesting film concerns a space alien who invades an underwater scientific facility in order to start an invasion of earth from under the sea. The monster costume is very cool looking and I have always liked it.
Scott Brady is the military man sent to investigate while Gary Merrill is the scientist who only wants to communicate with the invader.
Lots of diving and underwater swimming back and forth from lab to alien ship, but still an fun film for monster movie lovers.
Sheree North, Mike Road and the gorgeous Wendy Wagner round out a very good cast.
This movie isn't perfect, but who cares, it's fun and it should please fans of cool movie monsters.
