The Year: 1956 (10 years before Star Trek)The Players: Leslie Nielsen, but don't call him Shirley
The Take: $3 million
Is the Planet Really Forbidden?: Only if you are against have your limbs torn asunder by invisible monsters.
Why you should see it: This is a classic sci-fi film. It must have been a heavy inspiration for Star Trek as it features the standard interstellar crew complete with womanizing captain who land on a planet equipped with advanced alien technology. It also introduces the iconic Robby the Robot. The sets, effects, and story all hold up incredibly well 50 years later.

Hmm...looks decent. It was weird to see Leslie Nielson looking so young, but with nearly the same voice as now.
