Phil Foster, Benson Fong, Eric Fleming and Michael Shaughnessy in " Conquest of Space." to track down the Creature, a strange being, half-man, half- fish, and the film dealt with the difference of opinion between two doctors engaged on the expedition, one hoping to change the creature into a complete human being as a contribution to science, while the other wants to use him for clinical reasons. They capture the Creature and find through an accident which badly burns him that he has perfect lung formation and human skin under his scales, so he becomes a land creature. When the film ends, the Creature, badly wounded, is making his way towards the ocean he once called his home. Another Creature film followed the first, Revenge of the Creature, in which the Creature is again captured and tested to see how human it is—a series of tests which ends with the Creature disappearing into a river amid a hail of bullets. The science fiction stories not only take us searching the dark mystery of the sea, but they also probe the outer air. They take us to imaginary planets in space ships and on to space stations before taking off for a planet which lies in outer space. Do you remember Conquest of Space made in Technicolor a year or two ago ? It was the story of a group of volunteers who achieved a flight to Mars from The Wheel, a space station about a thousand miles from Earth. George Pal, the producer of the film, called it a " science fact " film rather than science fiction, for he believes that men will reach both the Moon and Mars from a space station. Mars shown in the film was devoid of life, because its existence is doubted on that planet. George Pal had previously made War of the Worlds, Destination Moon and When Worlds Collide. Also falling under the heading of a science fact film is On the Threshold of Space. This is an authentic diama of the work being done by the U.S. Air Force's Air Research and Develop- ment command and the surgeons and doctors at their disposal.
