Sorry, missed the play and the first showing :-) So, wonder if the "coming soon" version is from Cheezy Flicks or is there a legit release coming our way? Eric

I must be in the minority here. I finally got around to buying the DVD of this movie and was not surprised to find that I STILL enjoyed the darn thing. It's slow, yes... but I like the overall...

I was another one who liked this. The way I saw it,it was the German scientist who was sending the messages,up until that last one. Then God intervened,to keep him from undoing what had happened....

First and only viewing of this was April of 1963. Today I watched it again. Sense of duty, doncha know? As I related three years ago (and just a few posts up the page) it was an enormous...
