The Strange World of Planet X (film)

The Strange World of Planet X 1958 is a British science fiction horror film, and a cautionary tale about science. It was also known as Cosmic Monsters, The Crawling Terror, The Cosmic Monster, and The Crawling Horror.

A monomaniacal scientist, Dr. Laird played by Alec Mango, has invented ultrasensitive magnetic fields, which attracts objects from space. Strange things begin happening, including a freak storm, and insects and spiders mutate into giant monsters. An alien spaceship appears over London and mankind is warned against the dangers of this scientific experiment.The plot of this lowbudget film appears to have been inspired by The Day the Earth Stood Still 1951. On its original release it was not notably successful, but subsequently became something of a cult favorite due to television reruns. ........
