Tom Willett (yonhope) This movie is based on the true story of the Martian Invasion of 1965. The handsome astronaut who bravely goes into space to do something that needs doing. You, the viewer will weep openly not just once as this story unreels. The Earthlings speak perfect martian. I did not realize Martians chose to land in the US because they speak the same language we speak. Austin Powers is the Martian. The Queen or whatever, is Liz Taylor, I think. The general is the guy who works at the garden shop. Nobody eats anything on Mars and probably not on Earth. A movie with no food. Don't ask why there is a monster where the monster appears. The guy who played Frankenstein is actually very good. He did a few movies. This movie would go well with Mars Needs Women and Teenagers From Outer Space. Look for a Rambler and a Studebaker. If you like sixties music this has some sixties sounding songs in the background. Not any real hits. Worth watching and finding good quotes.

Claudio Carvalho In outer space, a Martian spacecraft commanded by Princess Marcuzan (Marilyn Hanold) and her assistant Dr. Nadir (Lou Cutell) is traveling to Earth to abduct women to breed a new race, since an atomic war has annihilated Martian women.Meanwhile in NASA, Dr. Adam Steele (Jim Karen), his assistant Karen Grant (Nancy Marshall) and General Bowers (David Kerman) are in a press conference presenting the astronaut Colonel Frank Saunders (Robert Reilly), who will participate of an extended space travel on the next morning. However they do not disclose to the press that Colonel Saunders is an android developed by the scientists. The Martian spacecraft lands on San Juan, in Porto Rico and when they see Saunders's capsule on the air, they believe it is an attack and they shoot the Earth ship down. The android is damaged and wanders on the island scaring people and behaving like Frankenstein. Dr. Steele and Karen head to Porto Rico to rescue the android, while the Martians abduct young women to take them to Mars. "Frankenstein Meets the Spacemonster" is a lame film for the younger generations used to colored movies and special effects. But for me, it is delightful to see since it is a journey to my childhood when I used to see sci-fi films like this one and worshiped National Kid.This film is comparable with "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and other many famous and is underrated in IMDb. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Frankenstein Contra o Monstro Espacial" ("Frankenstein Against the Space Monster")

Coventry Once every so often, you encounter a movie that leaves you completely dumbfounded… With a title like "Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster" you can already safely derive that you won't be seeing a highly intellectual work of cinematic art, but still the film was at least five times as demented as I could ever have imagined! This movie is the epitome of cheap & trashy 60's Sci-Fi/horror. No plot was grotesque enough, no set design looked cheesy enough and you simply didn't have a satisfied drive-in audience if the movie didn't feature any extended footage of dancing bikini girls! There's something ridiculous to behold at any given moment during the film, whether it's a passive acting performance or a hilarious attempt at special effects, and the plot appears to get sillier with every minute that passes. Somewhere just outside the our stratosphere, there's a Martian ship floating around and nuking earth's spaceships because they're war declarations. The Martians are all bald guys with pointy ears and there's one queen who stole Cleopatra's wardrobe. The crew is on a mission to capture earth babes (preferably in bikini) because they urgently need to repopulate their planet! Meanwhile, the pointdexters over at NASA are running out of living astronauts and decide to skyrocket an android into space instead. The android's name is Frank and he looks quite nasty when half his face gets blown off, so his creators inventively nickname him Frankenstein. To make the title fully relevant, there's also a hideous monster aboard the Martian ship that Franky has to overthrow before he can rescue the babes. Put all these crazy plot elements together, add a swinging 60's score and some cardboard scenery, and you've got yourself a genuine drive-in favorite. This movie is probably a very unwise choice if you swear by the repertoires of Sci-Fi luminaries like Andrei Tarkovsky or Stanley Kubrick, but it's a delightful treat for us fanatics of kitschy smut.

Brian Lindsey In Puerto Rico, bald, pointy-eared extraterrestrial invaders are kidnapping bikini babes for breeding stock. Only a scarred, crash-damaged NASA cyborg named Frank is in any position to stop them. But first he must confront Mull, the monstrous creature the aliens have brought with them...Confession: I have yet to watch this film without being under the influence of some kind of recreational substance. You might wish to take that under consideration when weighing the merit of my analysis. You see, I actually like FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE SPACE MONSTER. Yes, it stinks. Badly. It's cheap, stupid and silly. 60% of the film is pure padding, for the most part cobbled together from stock footage (much of it military). The scenes of Frank's scientist-creator (James Karen) and his shapely female assistant tooling around San Juan on a moped will test the patience of even die-hard trash film freaks.Nonetheless I find this cheese log tasty, especially when I have the... ahem... munchies. It makes me laugh. There's some great stuff here for a "Do It Yourself" MST3K party. The aliens — among them a young Bruce Glover (Crispin's dad) — run around in motorcycle helmets brandishing plastic ray guns. Mull, the titular space monster is both laughable and cool-looking at the same time. The music is very groovy, too; the infectiously catchy song "That's the Way It's Got to Be" (by The Poets) somehow goes great with NASA stock footage. Then there's the goofy alien second-in-command, Dr. Nadir (Lou Cutell), whom I like to refer to as 'Smirky McBat-ears'. He's simply hilarious. ("And now... maximum energy!")Recommendation: See this movie stoned. Because that's the way it's got to be.
