फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
In looking at this movie, it seemed to me that this was pretty close in concept to It Came from Outer Space, the sci-fi classic starring Richard Carlson and Barbara Rush. It was later remade as Night Slaves, a TV movie in 1990.
However, it was good seeing Robert Hutton, a perennial favorite in sci-fi films.
On the negative side, the editing seemed rather haphazard, with cuts and clips not blending together to add coherence and continuity. Also, the film lacked any of the background characters who were so good in what have turned out to be sci-fi classics. Made in England, They Came from Beyond Space has the location, but not the interest of the Quatermass movies.

I think both the '50s and '60s were a golden age for Sci-Fi films and after Roswell, it seemed everyone was having a try at 'alien invasion' films.
Okay, this film isn't going to set the World alight with its plot, acting, music, or anything else but it's still a delightful watch for fans of the genre, either as a nostalgic look back at Sixties Britain, or for those interested in the history of such films.
Incidentally, being a big fan of TV and film from that time, probably as I grew up with it, I kept recognising classic sound effects, many of which probably also 'served' in other movies and ITC TV series of the time.
"It Came From Outer/Beyond Space" Could this be the Brits' version of a pretty cool old movie? Hmmmm. Similar story but nowhere near the level of "...Outer Space".
Now "...Beyond Space" isn't really that bad. I got a kick out of it. It reminded me a bit of the Quatermass movies with set styles along the lines of Dr. Who. It's a little disjointed from time to time, but the story was decent with plausible details and kept me interested. And generally the acting wasn't all that bad either. There is a little too much "spying" going on however. Every other scene has our hero peeping thru the bushes, following baddies, sneaking in and out of places, etc. Avengers style. Unfortunately, the ending was a little goofy too.
The effects weren't good, but certainly not as hokey as some I've seen. The rocketship actually looked like one, and the lift device was realistic too (except for the yellow & black striped paint job). Sets were fair (especially for low budget) and had little extra touches (like the automated robot rolling around). I bet the actors tripped more than once on that railroad track thing tho.
Had there been more money and time available, I think this could have been changed from "mediocre" to "brilliant." It seems the talent, plot, and expertise were there just waiting to be brought out.
For a sci-fi fan this should fulfill one of those "night owl" sessions when you just don't want to go to bed. Definitely not an addition to my coaster collection.

Considering that this film was obviously shot on a tight budget, it worked out to be an enjoyable film nonetheless. I haven't seen many Hutton films, but I like his Style of thinking, cerebral hero who reasons first, shoots later.
This film must have been very inspirational to Stephen King, as the plot of his book "The Tommyknockers" was nearly identical to the plot of this movie - right down to the hero with a metal plate in his head.
Of course, the only real down side to this film is the fight music. All it consists of is Someone pounding on a snare drum. they could have done better here.
All in all, it's an enjoyable film of it's era, and one I Will probably watch again.

Extremely Underrated and Unfairly Criticized by quick Haters that consider this an Easy Target for Ridicule and let loose. Truth is the Movie is comparatively Slick, and has Gorgeous Colorful Sets. The Director Freddie Francis makes Every Shot Count.
There are Clever Angles and the Interesting Things going on. May be Inexpensive but is Impressive Nonetheless. The Look of the Film, especially the Interiors Remind of Mario Bava, extremely Sweetened. It has a Rich Sheen and is so Glossy it almost Slides Off the Screen.
The Story is a Familiar One leading to an awfully Saccharine and Disappointing Ending, but again, the Sets are a Wow. The Costumes and Props used throughout are sometimes Silly, Yes, but Not Without a Certain Goofy Charm. The Fight Scenes, and there are a Few, seem Out of Place but are Stunt Worthy and Visceral.
The Movie's biggest and Glaring Downer is the Terrible Music and is the Kind of Thing that Elevators made Famous and is a Square Version of Trendy Hip.
Overall, Recommended for Fans of Eye Candy and a Love for Big Ideas on a Small Budget and some Pros Behind the Camera that Make it all Work.
