Zontar: Thing From Venus

Zontar Commands You to Watch! The unique low budget films of Texas director Larry Buchanan (Mars Needs Women) have fascinated and mystified viewers for decades, and now you can see one of his most infamous efforts that left audiences speechless. Working wtih impossibly low budgets, Buchanan crafted ambitious tales of nuclear holocausts, past life regression, and invaders from far-off galaxies, often featuring former box-office stars in decline to lend some credibility. Zontar: Thing From Venus, a loose remake of Roger Corman's It Conquered The World, features John Agar (The Brain From Planet Arous) as a scientist who cooperates with an alien invader from Venus in an attempt to solve mankind's problems and instead makes things much, much worse.
