VOYAGE TO THE PREHISTORIC PLANET (1965)

Or was it VOYAGE TO THE PLANET OF PREHISTORIC WOMEN? Well, in either case, I like 'em both, each being the illegitimate offspring of the Russian PLANETA BURG (1962). I used to see these on Chiller...

I feel sorry for the poor guy IN the robot, that thing had to have weighed a ton. Probably some Soviet power lifter. John seemed enormously powerful carrying all those guys around on his shoulders....

The John robot suit was used in another Soviet film, but with a different head. It was a movie called, "Call Him Robert." Apparently about a human looking android, of which John was the older,...

I like the closeup shot they have of John's feet going over the rocky terrain. All the moving parts in his legs make it look all the more plausible. I guess these were just leggings, or some sort of...

I think PLANETA BURG is the best film of the three, but I have a special fondness for the goofy mash-up charm of V TO THE P OF THE PREHISTORIC WOMEN. I'll sum it up in 3 words: Scallop shell brassieres.

There's a Russian All Region DVD that offers just such a print. You can get it at Amazon.com if you search under Planeta Burg. Here are the links:...
