Episode 698: Forbidden Planet (1956)

Episode 698: Forbidden Planet (1956) Guest Co-Hosts: Mike Faloon, Lexy Van Dyke

Mike Faloon and Lexy Van Dyke join Mike to wrap up Sci-Fi July with one of the classics of the genre, Forbidden Planet Forbidden Planet (1956). A loose adaptation of Shakespeare’s The Tempest, the film stars Leslie Nielsen as Commander J.J. Adams.  He and his crew land upon a planet in the Altair system where they look for survivors from the spaceship Bellerophon.  There they discover just Professor Morbius (Walter Pidgeon), his daughter Altaria (Anne Francis), and their robot servant (Robby).

There’s a mystery afoot and it’s up to Commander Adams and his gang of goofy astronauts to solve it.
