Here is a little gem I am going to add to my list.

 

The Poorly titled 'Planet of the Vampires'

 

The influential horror director, Mario Bava (Black Sunday (1960) and Black Sabbath ), really takes this mid 60s Italian pulp Sci-Fi-horror flick beyond the actors and the script. You can really see the influence this had on 'Alien" and many other modern movies of the genre. If you are a real fan, this is not to be missed.

 

Characters are unremarkable but they are all dressed up in black leather!. The sets have a kind of TSO look but as a whole the planet rises far above that and is really quite remarkable given the budget.

 

The "midnight movies" dvd print is really good and has the original eerie score. The same one is used on netflix.
