Byron H @HalloweenII 10/30/2024 3/4 From a cornball perspective, it's a masterpiece. A hilarious concept that should not be taken seriously. See more 11/07/2014 With some times crappy acting, dialogue and effects, The brain from planet Arous has developed a cult following and has because a sci-fi cult classic. I found it to be very entertaining and fun. It is understandable that with a small estimated 58,000 dollars they could not do much. Although it's story is a little ridiculous i still recommend this movie for entertainment and laughter.

See more bill t @Spuzz 03/13/2013 Pretty amazing movie about a guy who gets possessed by a power hungry brain from another planet who wants to take over the universe. Fortunately, another brain arrives to help the man's girlfriend get rid of the eeeevil brain. Thunderously enjoyable just because everything is taken so goddamn seriously. Like when the other brain arrives, the girlfriend and her father just start accepting everything the second brain says. Things like that make this definitely your worthwhile to see. See more 11/06/2012 As much as I wanted to love this movie, it just didn't really hold up compared to other B-movie efforts from the 50's! It truly pains me to say that a 50's movie just didn't interest me, but the story, the brain and the main character just didn't give anything memorable! If you're new to 50's movies this isn't the place to start, you will be put off for life! See more 10/22/2011 este sí es un claro ejemplo... :-))) See more Read all reviews
