7/10
An early Sci-Fi that also was a comedy and a farce
20 February 2010
I bought this movie for 50 cents at a public library VHS sale. I had seen the film before a number of time, on TV, I think.

This is a classic piece for a number of reasons. First because it hardly takes itself seriously, with Cookie and Robbie making pure Saint Louie Burden.

Also the sex parts are such a farce that one has to break out out laughing. I'm glad I was able to add this classic 1956 Sc-Fi to my collectibles.

On a deeper level it appeals to our childish ideas about what our minds might be capable. Conjuring is as old as there has been witchcraft and black magic.

For the 1956 period the art and technical architecture is advanced even by some of today's standards.

I for one remain impressed also with the technical back drops in 2010, that appeared decades ago, in the flicks, Aliens and 2001.

Its a good laughable watch and a fine collectible.
