The bizarre atmospheric conditions of this planet cause everything to appear as color-tinted black-and-white, the tint randomly changing from blue to red to green and so forth. During one scene set inside the spaceship, an astronaut is looking through a periscope-type of device. The view presents a grid with marked north, south, east, and west coordinates. I&#8217;m certainly no science brain, but don&#8217;t those points of direction become &#8220;lost&#8221; once you have left the Earth? Hmmm&#8230;whatever.<\/p>\n<p>John Carradine is in this flick.
