This image of monsters toppling a robot is one of the most striking sci-fi film stills Ive ever seen. It's so well staged, everything leaning perfectly like the Iwo Jima flag group and such an arresting shot from the old Soviet movie Planeta Bur.
The robot armour looks fabulously chunky and recalls completely the knights in the modern series Fallout.
And this space car! Wow! I've seen that before but where?
I've never watched this Soviet flick. Have you?
The space car resembles Supercar.
ReplyDeleteYou may be recalling seeing that car in Roger Corman's Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet film from 1965. This is where I recall seeing it. No surprise though, as Corman purchased the rights to Planet of Storms (the Soviet film Planeta Bur) and used footage from Mechte Navstrechu (A Dream Come True), as well as footage from the Soviet science fiction film Nebo Zovyot, (Battle Beyond the Sun). Just a case of Corman's frugal habits implanting memories into the children of the 60s. ;)
