In The Year 2889 is a 1967 post-apocalyptic made for TV SF movie. I hadn't seen it for 6 or 7 years, so I thought I'd give it a look. It was written by Harold Hoffman and Lou Rusoff, the director was Larry Buchanan. Larry's known for his low-budget genre cheapies. It was part of a series of films he did for AIP Television, it was based on Roger Corman's 1955 Day The World Ended. An older man makes a house in a canyon that has high walls that keep the prevailing winds out. When the bombs fall the place winds up with much less radiation than the rest of the area. There's nothing much lest out there but several people wonder in so there's now 7 instead of the 3 the rich guy planned food for. One of them is played by Paul Peterson, some old farts might remember him from The Donna Reed Show. His character's brother is all radiation burned and a problem. There's plenty of bad luck that befalls the group and hardly anyone is left alive to re-pop the planet. It uses the script from the original and doesn't change much but the acting and production values turn it into a below average production. It doesn't get a 2.8 on the IMDb for no good reason. You can check it out on YouTube. There's no real reason to need to buy a copy.
Invaders From Space is part of the Starman series of movies from the 1950s. The original series of films were chopped up and turned into 4 different films here in the USA. I've seen the others before but for some reason I missed this one. In the movie a bunch of Kappa like aliens try to invade Japan. The invaders leap about a lot and there's a good amount of dancing. Starman puts a stop to that with plenty of punching and kicking. All the films in the series have a nice level of goofiness that I found entertaining. You can take a look at the movie on YouTube. The others are about there too.
