Yes but it has Yvonne Craig.

gee, I can't imagine why......

[@Manorainjan]

There was more science in it than in most modern so-called SciFi movies.

[@alanlinfield8207]

Yes, especially the part about "non-chromosomal genes." I think the writer just wanted to see if anyone was paying attention.

[@sgabig]

wrt outro : Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky was a Russian and Soviet rocket scientist who pioneered astronautics. Along with Hermann Oberth and Robert H. Goddard, he is one of the pioneers of space flight and a founding father of modern rocketry and astronautics

One of the craziest titles in movieland

[@EudociaJanampa]

Awesome title for a movie. 10 / 10. The movie itself is a 2 / 10.

[@ericastier1646]

The title is perfect and nothing particular about it. Women are made for procreation. Without it they are unhappy even if they don't think otherwise.

[@alpha-omega2362]

how about "Teenagers from Outerspace" ? That was a pretty awesome movie actually.

[@scdoty777]

Yvonne tried to titnotize Derek Flint too! In my favorite Mooovie, “In Like Flint”, baby! Yeah, man! Seriously a little pixie hottie! And also noted that Martians weren’t snatching Trans “women” because that wouldn’t help any repopulation efforts.

[@arts7867]

Great GREAT credits... unusually they're almost four minutes into the movie!

[@yodservant]

Surprisingly good film...!!

[@starson1]

They called them flying saucers back in the day because coffee and tea was served on a saucer and people thought alien ships looked like them. 🤣

[@marisol3827]

😄 I wondered why you were stating the obvious, but then I understood your point. How many people are alive anymore who remember the joys of coffee served on a saucer, or even in a styrofoam to-go cup!?!?!?

[@joeharris3878]

Back in the old days people said back in the old days.

[@NICEFINENEWROBOT]

More precisely: coffee was poured into the saucer and slurped from there because it was too hot in the cup. That was a long time ago, when the coffee sniffers of Emperor Old Fritz roamed the streets of Prussia (on foot) to catch the drug users wherever the smell of coffee wafted through the kitchen windows.

[@_construction_2023]

​@@marisol3827 Yes , hmm, saucers . In the 70s , they would have said frisbees. Lmao, in 2022 , they would say flying bitcoin, cause it looks like a coin shape.

[@Paul-gq2bn]

Larry Buchanan's Azalea Productions have an unidentifiable SOMETHING to them that gives them a peculiar, dreamlike allure. Since most of them are intentional differently titled remakes of 50s AIP flicks, they often impart an eerie sense of deja vu when seen by people who viewed those flicks many years or decades earlier, but who don't immediately recall them right away.

[@paulbriggs3072]

I notice the aliens purchased for their use the same cheap plastic 1968 flashlights that we used. Also at the end when the authorities came to raid the place, they only had the budget for one soldier.

[@Monty_BeGoodToEachOther]

yes, that and a spear gun... it seems if you least take out the spear, it will look a less like a spear gun. regardless, i still thot it was a fun movie.

No, I counted at least 6 soldiers.

[@twilightgamedesigns4887]

Boy this was funny and sad at the same time. The ironic thing is they probably would have had many volunteers:)

[@blrbrazil1718]

I imagine the reaction of the stripper when she comes round and finds she was rescued: "Hell, do you think I like working in a strip joint? I could've been the mother of a new civilization!" The ending also left ample room for a sequel involving the two lovers.

In one of the companies I worked for many years ago we had a computer, it took up a whole room and it's power was a fraction of my smartphone !

The computers portrayed in the movie were just like those I encountered as a trainee programmer in the 1970s. They had Univac computers.

[@iworkout6912]

My first job had those computers and each spinning magnetic reel console had a Disney charter's name. We would say Minnie needs her reels changed. Mickey was right next to her. Goofy was on the end. Those printers made a hell of a racket when the all started printing at once. Other employees would walk by and look through the windows and marvel at all the mostly non-action.

Interesting thought here,...What would it be like if there was a movie called "Venus Needs Men" to provide a counterbalance?

[@scotpens]

Actually there is such a movie -- only it's Mars, not Venus. Check out the 1954 British flick "Devil Girl from Mars."

[@popnfresh2928]

At 3:15 that line MARS NEEDS WOMEN has been sampled by hundreds of Electronic & Hip Hop artist from the early 1990’s to current day🤘😀🤘

[@blrbrazil1718]

That was another entertaining alien movie (Earth Girls Are Easy)

[@IvanRodriguez-hl4pg]

I've known this title for many, many years but I never saw a single frame of this movie until now. Oddly enough, Tommy Kirk reminds me of Edward Norton in this film but Norton's acting abilities leaves Tommy in the dust. I always thought someone should have made an adult entertainment film along the lines of "Cat Women of the Moon", "Missile to the Moon" and "Queen of Outer Space" and titled it, "Venus Needs P*n*s".

[@ragnaegilsdottir7881]

I enjoyed it thouroly ❤

[@iworkout6912]

[@MONGOOSE1ful]

This was an American International PicturesTelevision release, through Azalea Productions, which cheapmeister, Larry Buchanan ("CURSE OF THE SWAMP CREATURES" and "ZONTAR- THING FROM VENUS") directed, showing American International's reputation for low budget sci-fi movies, even with star, Yvonne Craig (who i had the pleasure of meeting in early 1990, a very nice lady!), which appears to be the only saving grace of this 1968 cheapie!

I'm absolutely sure that somewhere in this country back in 1968, there had to be at least a few people who were competent actors. I guess the producers of this thing couldn't find any of them. And no, having a great figure is not an acting skill.

[@shelleymcafee8197]

In My opinion, the Martian’s probably left the vocal-channels open to hear wether the Earthlings changed their minds re ‘Volunteering’. …Of-course (sadly) Earth’s Military translates that it in terms of hostil-intentions!

In 1968, there were no girls willing to sleep with any random John Doe… Either the Martians were 50 years too early…. Or, they made it JUST IN TIME!
