Probably everyone has seen this one, and I remember watching it on (semi-frequent) rotation on Saturday evening schlock horror/sci-fi channels, in the era before mystery science theatre....

I suppose I'm a bit odd but I got all nostalgic when Dr. Meacham used a slide rule at the 43 minute mark. It brought back some happy memories of simpler times. I had one of the better ones with scales on the front and back and someone else in my class had a cylindrical one.

I'd all but forgotten about this one.  Watched it 40+ years ago when I was a kid.

So cool that it's on youtube.

Thanks!

That movie generated more nightmares than any other movie ever has. The invisible monster was scary!

It was the soundtrack. Really creepy. 😧 And the first time we saw Robbie The Robot of course, before he appeared in Lost In Space.

Uh...When did Robbie appear in lost in space?  I bet he never said "Danger, Will Robinson!".

He absolutely did. You couldn't shut him up. Every episode he yelled "Danger Will Robinson!"
