Target Earth (1954)
6/10
War of the Robot!
30 November 2021
This one begins in a fashion which no doubt influenced Day of the Triffids and the subsequent 28 Days Later, with a character waking up to find the city deserted except for dead bodies and finally a small group of survivors. What could be responsible? Alien robots from Venus, that's what! This one has a quite decent group of characters to propel the drama but its best asset in my opinion were the robots (or more precisely the ONE robot). It is a truly hilarious dime store wonder, like Maximillian from The Black Hole made by kids for a school project. And I, for one, loved it! But if you would prefer a second opinion then you could refer to the American magazine 'TV Guide' who proclaimed that "the robots are just plain disappointing."
