Take a trip someplace that's unlike any other on Earth.
This British B-movie cult classic stars Patricia Laffan as a vinyl-clad, raygun-toting Martian on the hunt for Earthmen to repopulate her home planet; John Laurie, Adrienne Corri and Hammer Horror queen Hazel Court star among her human victims in this cult classic from the Danziger brothers. Devil Girl from Mars is featured here in a brand-new transfer from original film elements in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.On a winter evening, assorted guests are at their supper in a remote Scottish inn. Suddenly, a brilliant light descends; a spaceship has landed on the moors, and the group are trapped within an invisible wall surrounding the house and garden. The invader is Nyah, a pitiless dominatrix whose powers are demonstrated through a robot under her control. With every Martian male wiped out in a definitive battle of the sexes, she has been sent to Earth to capture suitable breeding stock. As their escape attempts meet with icy contempt, the helpless humans must decide who will die to save the others... and possibly the world!SPECIAL FEATURES:[] image gallery[] Press book PDF
