SATURDAY 17TH JULY 2010, 12:00AM. Battle In Outer Space (1960) [IMDB]. The trailer made this look like an MST3K-worthy film, but reviews and synopses point to it being an extravaganza for its time, and a probable influence for Star Wars.
SATURDAY 24TH JULY 2010, 11:30AM. King Of Thorn (2010) [wikipedia]. This looks pretty much like an anime version of Fallout to me, but with triffids instead of deserts. I'm hoping for classic sci-fi sensibilities.
