Thriller about a rocket flight that has horrifying results. Chuck: Marshall Thompson. Tia: Marla Landi. Dan: Bill Edwards. Ben: Robert Ayres. Wilson: Bill Nagy. Dr. von Essen: Carl Jaffe. Mexican Consul: Roger Delgado. Directed by Robert Day.

A British production about an American astronaut who returns to earth covered with slime-like meteor dust and with a cosmic organism inside him. The creature takes over the spaceman's body but it needs human blood to live. After a couple of killings and a break-in at a blood bank, the astronaut's scientist brother kills the creature and his brother in a decompression chamber. A scary and well done sci-fi exploitation film set in Arizona but shot in England.
