Review of Planet of the Vampires

A low budge Italian-American co-production deserves respect from the critics and the viewers, it' was a bold enterprise, mixing two genres Sci-Fi and Horror where Master Bava proved be unexcelled, the storyline is fresh and original about two spacecraft that received a S.O.S from the last survives of a dying planet Aura, They headed to there, but landing on the planet strangely the spacecraft's crew attacked each other, some end up dying, they buried them, however they go back to live like a Zombies, apart the lavish giant sets, the conceptive design of the oversized bridge in the spacecraft and others inside chambers expose a careless production, also the special effects were poorly done, the overview is enough and acceptable, some specialized critics state that it was the forerunner of "Ridley Scott's Alien" indeed there's a certain similarity between them, although Ridley disagree, see by yourself, highly recommended!!
