The
Green Planet
SOFAC
Art: Piotr Kamler
Story: Jacques Sternberg
A
science fiction short in which the visuals are apparently achieved
by sprinkling fine sand onto a green-coloured background. The accompanying
commentary describes the activities of the star-shaped inhabitants
of Actur. Their chief industry is the manufacture of time - time
to fill, time to gain, time to lose, and although tone deaf, they
love music. It becomes increasingly obvious that the absurd creatures
being described aren't Acturans at all, but a race slightly closer
to home.

accompanied by a Sherpa guide and a girl worried about her fiance.
They are captured by aliens, the giant blue Aytia, who just happen
to let slip their plan to turn the planet into a huge ice plain
so that their pals from a doomed planet in another solar system
can move in. Why don't we just grant them political asylum and give
them all houses and satellite T.V.? Anyway, having discovered that
the aliens' main base is on Callisto, one of Jupiter's moons, our
little band escapes and our two heroes, Jackson and Pulasky, are
sent into space on a mission to slap the back of the aliens' legs
and tell them to stop it before we all freeze to death. Earth is

A volcanic eruption chews up the planet allowing them to escape.
They somehow come to the conclusion that the monsters were really
Venusians who became mutants after they destroyed their planet with
atomic warfare. Still with me…..? I would have thought that Faith
would have had enough of mutants after 'This Island Earth'.
It's a lousy job, but someone has to do it.

An
unusual nuclear war 'scare' film made for TV by the BBC in the form
of a documentary showing the effects of a nuclear strike on a town
in Kent was considered too horrifying for television. It was allowed
to be shown at The National Film Theatre in February 1966 and was
subsequently only released to selected cinemas as it was thought
the viewing population might take it too seriously, like the 'War
Of The Worlds' radio programme. Gruesome.

jockey hangs around a rather dilapidated-looking palace. There are,
apparently, lots of wafting breezes and some sort of climactic 'birth'
scene. I can hardly wait . . .
