Singing cowboys! Wacky rubber-suited monsters! Robots! Blood-sucking space beauties! The Ship of Monsters has it all.
A rarely screened Mexican B-movie, The Ship of Monsters is classic campy delight. After the last man on Venus dies, two voluptuous Venusian women, Beta and Gamma, set out on an intergalactic mission to collect men from around the cosmos. After assembling an assortment of bizarre, monstrous space men, the women’s ship crashes in Chihuahua, Mexico. Once there, the women develop differing goals—Beta is captivated by a local singing cowboy, while Gamma is set on conquering Earth using her space aliens as soldiers. In Spanish with English subtitles. (81 mins., DCP)
