Georgan G 12/22/2023 Another from the 50 SciFi Classics Collection. Sort of watchable, but uneven plot makes it boring. "Invisible" alien who needs a space suit to survive arrives on earth. See more Josh G 02/15/2023 Fun at times , but mostly dry and a forgettable space entry from the 50's and the space genre as a whole. It never tries anything new or uses the tropes to be a stand out simple forgettable.

Star is reward for big surprise. See more 01/02/2018 Another intrepid low-budget sci-fi flick from director Lee Wilder, though this one is hindered by an ultra-silly script which includes people talking about an alien they've encountered "who has no head" even though the alien's space helmet is a solid mass except for a checkbook-sized tinted visor. The alien is also described as a "giant of a man" despite one scene where he runs through an empty lot at an estimated height of about 5-7 or so. Still a fun movie, especially for aficionados of this genre. See more 05/03/2015 Joe Dante noted on his review of Phantom from Space, that it was one of the wilder science fiction films of the 1950's and i have to admit it's different. But the movie has a few bad sides: a lac of violence, very slow pacing, an over use of stock footage and an never ending narration. But it's still an okay low budget film, invisible alien and cheesy plot. See more Read all reviews
