What do you want to see on SF?

Makes me weep just thinking of all the missed opportunities to show some great older SciFi movies and series, but then incontinence does that to you.

Weeping involves moisture leaking from the eyes, BF. In colloquial usage, incontinence denotes moisture leaking from the other end of the torso.

Notwithstanding, your sentiment is understood and shared.

I had a dyslexic girlfriend once,kissing made for great times !

Even after a good night's sleep, I just don't get the joke. D'oh!

Planeta Bur'



Also known as Planet of the Storms, Planet of Storms, Planet of Tempests, Planeta Burg (illiterate American bootleg title) and Storm Planet, Planeta Bur' is a 1962 Soviet film directed by Pavel Klushantsev.

Three Soviet spaceships, the Sirius, the Vega and the Cappella, are on their way to the planet Venus. The Cappella is struck by a meteorite and destroyed. The two remaining ships continue, even though the mission required three ships. Another spaceship, the Arktur, is being sent from Earth, but won't arrive for 2 months. The cosmonauts aboard Sirius and Vega decide that some sort of landing and exploration is better than waiting.

Ivan and Kern go down from Vega in a glider, leaving Masha in orbit. They are forced to land in a swamp; afterward, all contact is lost.

The Sirius lands and its three-man crew sets out in a hovercar to find Ivan and Kern. During their travels they hear a woman's voice singing eerily in the distance, and encounter prehistoric beasts ...

In 1965, Curtis Harrington replaced several original Russian scenes with American-made ones, featuring Basil Rathbone and Faith Domergue, and released a dubbed version under title Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet. Harrington's version showed up often on Australian television, during the 1960s and early 1970s, and quickly became one of my fonder childhood memories. I could see that the movie had been dubbed from some foreign language (my parents had explained the process to me, when I first noticed it in a Japanese movie), but I had no idea that the movie was originally Russian; I figured that it was Italian, because I had seen other European-looking types in dubbed Italian movies.

btw, this movie features one of the classic sci-fi robots of all time (imo): John.

I have both in my collection as well, BF. One day, I should try to obtain Peter Bogdanovich's 1968 version, Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women, too.

There you go! Amazon.co.uk had three copies in stock. They were asking only £3.00 per copy, so now they have only two.
