Five Earthlings from different countries (including Gene Barry of “War of the Worlds” and lovely English actress Valerie French) are kidnapped by a Klaatu-like alien who gives each of them a palm-sized transparent case containing three silver capsules. The capsules have the power to make millions of humans vanish, without harming animals or causing destruction.<\/p>\n
The alien’s race desperately needs the planet Earth, but they are morally opposed to conquering it, so they give the war-pron Earthlings the ability to finish themselves off without devastating the planet in a nuclear war.<\/p>\n
Don’t expect any special effects except for two brief clips from “Earth versus the Flying Saucers”, one space scene from “The Day the Earth Stood Still”, and a small-scale test of the alien weapon. But the interior of the spacecraft is nicely done. This is an intelligent and uplifting movie, done on a small budget, although it’s a bit too talky and actionless for some taste. John Mantley wrote both the screenplay and the original novel. In the novel the capsules had a somewhat more far-reaching (and disturbing) effect on humans than they do in the film. [Originally co-billed with “20 Million Miles to Earth”]<\/p>\n
