Review of Robinson Crusoe on Mars (1964) by Eric H — 19 Mar 2012
It is literally what the title says it is. The DeFoe novel, Robinson Crusoe, but taking place on Mars. So it is really more of a survival tale than a traditional scifi, but that is sort of what makes it cool.
Plus a small cameo by Adam West. Same special effects artist who worked on War of the Worlds, and its obvious, being that the alien space ships are EXACTLY the same as the ones in the HG Wells classic.
Overall, not the best 60s scifi movie, but then again its really hard to compete with 2001: A Space Odyssey. But that being said, it does a fantastic job of actually following scientific law for the most part, and has some really cool visuals that make it worth a watch.
