Fire Maidens from outer space
Young women in short dresses, the only inhabitants with a middle-aged
man, of a lost planet. Women scared and in need of help to kill a very
bad monster. An unmissable mission for the earth male, always ready to
get his hands on some beautiful aliens.
A synopsis certainly tasty, which in other times and in the hands of
others would certainly have given something more interesting (and
indeed there are certainly examples). Maybe it will be that we are in
1956, or more simply that the director and author Cy Roth, was
absolutely unable to write or direct a similar story, we are in a film
whose only peak moment is a quiet plane ride in the first minutes of
film. For the rest, boredom. One of those things you can't wait for the
end. There isn't even that healthy 1950s sci-fi trash, just the feeling
that hours of life are being wasted.
"Fire Maidens of outer space" ends quickly and just as quickly you
forget the long and (boring) dialogues, the fake scenographies and that
vague monster that besieges the beautiful inhabitants of the thirteenth
moon of Jupiter, where among other things there is also a colony of
Atlantis. Ours and the middle-aged man are asking the astronauts for
help for kill the monster.
Aye! Aye! Mission accomplished (with some female victims) and our
people can go home. Don't cry beautiful alien, your earthling will
bring other males. You also breathe oxygen.
Criticized since its release, this film has several well-known names at
the time, such as Anthony Dexter, Paul Carpenter and the beautiful
Susan Shaw whose life, following a serious death, ended in a serious
addiction to alcohol.
