I've seen Missile to the Moon a couple of times now and found it quite enjoyable and also unintentionally funny in parts.
A couple of crooks who have escaped from prison are being pursued by coppers when they decide to hide in a rocket they have come across. They are then caught by its inventor who forces them to go to the moon with him. What they are unaware of is that the inventor's friend and his lover have also come aboard. They arrive on the Moon and come across several strange things including diamonds, a cheap looking giant spider, some rather strange looking rock men and, best of all, a group of beautiful young ladies who are living on the moon. After one of the group is hypnotised by the leader of the group so she can marry him, he manages to escape and they head back to the ship but not before one of the prisoners is roasted to death by the intense heat of the sun.
Missile to the Moon is more or less a remake to Cat Women of the Moon, which was made in 1953.
The cast includes Richard Travis (Mesa of Lost Women), Cathy Downs (The Amazing Colossal Man, The Phantom From 10,000 Leagues) and Gary Clarke (How to Make A Monster).
This is a must for all B-movie fanatics. Great fun.
Rating: 3 stars out of 5.
