“Every man its prisoner... every woman its slave!”

Dr. Tom Anderson (Lee Van Cleef), a scientist who has lost his faith in people, makes contact with an alien from Venus and agrees to help it take over the world. Roger Corman shot this independent black-and-white picture for American International Pictures, and it ran on a double bill with The She-Creature. Claire Anderson (Beverly Garland) and Tom's old friend Dr. Paul Nelson (Peter Graves) try to stop him, which puts a husband and wife on opposite sides.
