The EARTH DIES SCREAMING

The EARTH DIES SCREAMING
   Film (1964). Lippert/Planet. Dir Terence Fisher, starring Willard Parker, Virginia Field, Dennis Price. Screenplay Henry Cross, from a story by Harry Spalding. 62 mins. B/w.
   This is the first of three sf films that Terence Fisher (best known for his Hammer Horror films) made during the 1960s; the others were ISLAND OF TERROR (1966) and NIGHT OF THE BIG HEAT (1967). The UK has been invaded by alien-controlled robots. Survivors are besieged by corpses animated by the robots, so that the film is an inferior forerunner to NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD (1968). Like the other films in the series, all similar in theme, TEDS is handicapped by a clumsy script, a tiny budget and a director uninterested in sf.
