Saturday Creature Features: Mysterious Island (1961) and Earth vs The Flying Saucers (1956)

An evening of “TWO” Ray Harryhausen classics!

Mysterious Island (1961)

Stranded on an isolated south seas island, a shipwrecked group of travelers struggle to survive among gigantic animal life and a nearby volcano that’s ready to blow!

Herbert Lom guest stars as “Captain Nemo”.

Ray Harryhausen’s stop motion film process had no equal during this period in terms of natural animal movement and believability.

Earth vs The Flying Saucers (1956)

It’s a full scale alien invasion as laser blasting flying saucers and hostile aliens from an unknown planet decimate the capitals of the world in their attempt to conquer Earth!

Hugh Marlowe, Joan Taylor and Morris Ankrum lead the fight to save the planet!

Featuring first rate flying saucers that continue to thrill in 2024, Ray Harryhausen showed the world how an invading flying saucer should look and how it should behave!
