Review of Forbidden Planet (1956) by Al M — 27 Apr 2009
One of the indisputable masterpieces of 1950s science fiction. The effects are amazing for the time and the story pulls you deep into his developing mystery. Based loosely on Shakespeare's The Tempest, Forbidden Planet is sci-fi epic that constantly pushes itself beyond what you are expecting to explore the fact that most horrofying demons lie within human nature itself.
