CAPTIVE WOMEN 1953 (SINISTER CINEMA)

Pretty cool 50's sci-fi flick.

One of the first post-apocolyptic sci-fi films, this deals with three tribes of people...the Mutants, The Norms and the Upriver People, all fighting for survival in a destroyed world.

Robert Clarke stars as one of ther Norms who tries to bring the tribes together and stop all the fighting. This is a very low budget, set bound movie that actually manages to work on a micro level. Margaret Field is the woman he loves. Both starred in Man From Planet X the previous year.

jack pollexfen produced and co-wrote this story. William Schallert and Ron Randell also star. Thanks to Greg at Sinister for making this obscure gem available.
