About this Event

ROBOT MONSTER in 3-D – co-presented with 3-D SPACE


ROBOT MONSTER (1953, Bayview Ent., 66 min.) Dir. Phil Tucker. What more can be said about the iconic ROBOT MONSTER? Joe Dante once commented, "There's never been a picture like it." Often celebrated as one of the worst movies ever made, we think it is absolutely wonderful! ROBOT MONSTER tells the story of the last family of survivors left on the planet during the alien robot Ro-Man's mission to Earth to destroy humanity.


This low-budget sci-fi classic stars George Nader and Claudia Barrett as the scientists and star-crossed lovers Roy and Alice. Ten-year-old Gregory Moffett plays Johnny, and John Mylong, Selena Royle, and Pamela Paulson round out the cast as the rest of the family. Hollywood stuntman and ape suit performer George Barrows appears as the title character, Ro-Man, portrayed on screen as a gorilla wearing a space helmet. Filming took place over four days in 1953, on location at Bronson Canyon in Hollywood and at Chavez Ravine - future site of Dodger Stadium near downtown Los Angeles. Directed by Phil Tucker with a script by Wyatt Ordung, the picture features lots of quotable corny dialog, and a special appearance by the "Automatic Billion Bubble Machine."
ROBOT MONSTER was shot in stereoscopic 3-D, but unless you were one of the select few who saw the very limited 3-D release theatrically in 1953, you have not experienced this stereoscopic gem in all of its magnificent polarized 3-D glory - until now! Thanks to this stunning restoration by the 3-D Film Archive, you have the opportunity to finally see this incredible cult classic as director Phil Tucker intended - in the miracle of Tru-Stereo Three Dimension.
