Atom Man vs Martian Invaders (MPC Fireball XL5 Toy)

A fun amateur film made by Don Glut in 1967. Don used an MPC Fireball XL5 toy for the spaceship. He cut the middle part out & customised it a little. You can see more of the ship towards the end...

Cool, I like how Don Glut used everything he had lying around to make a pretty decent film.

As a Republic Serial fan I loved the homage to their Rocketmen Characters as well as the in-gag of naming the Rail Yard after the Lydecker Brothers (who did the special effects including the Flying Sequences) for Republic. I also loved the use of the Flying Dutchman Overture (which was the theme music used for the Flash Gordan Serials).

Outstanding.

A 60's parody of a 30's serial... somehow I don't see today's conveyor belt sci-fi generating this kind of affection decades from now
