    Had a friend watch this but had the wrong AUDIO on. Wow, was he surprised that they offered the PERSPECTA audio, but didn't see it. Always happy to help others with their audio!

    THIS ISLAND EARTH (1955) on Blu-Ray – when?

    Didn't cable come around in the 80's? I think I should have seen it during the 60's matinees on those Saturdays. Funny, I don't remember TIE, but I do remember FORBIDDEN PLANET. Even then the rumor about FP was Anne Francis had a swim suit on in the kiddee version, but not in the adult version...

    THIS ISLAND EARTH (1955) on Blu-Ray – when?

    Not to a 6 year old seeing it when it first came out. Just a scary movie (when the mutant dissolves on the space ship) right up there with all the others that came out during that time period that I was lucky to watch. I carried that love of them over to a 70 year adult. I don't judge old movies...

    You're so right. I had been talking with my son about when I took them to the Rialto in So. Pas in the 70's to see HOUSE OF WAX and IT CAME FROM OUTER SPACE in 3D when we lived in Alhambra. Then I got on here and still had the theater on my mind. Thanks for the correction ,

    Well, to tell my story once again, all I remember is being with my mom at the Ramona Theater on Sunset Blvd. at Alvarado in Los Angeles and so, I had to be about 6 tears old. I was in my own seat, and then the mutant dissolves on the floor in the saucer. I jumped into my mom's lap and told her...

    THIS ISLAND EARTH (1955) on Blu-Ray – when?

    We'll NEVER see this in our lifetime (us oldtimers) on a (US) BD on a disc. This movie, for us that collect sci-fi/horror, is our HOLY GRAIL...along with all the other 50's greats!!! When it finally comes out on BD, throw it on my grave and say, "Geese, here it is, sorry it took so long to...

    THIS ISLAND EARTH (1955) on Blu-Ray – when?

    I saw this on it's initial run in 1955. Was sitting next to my mom, and the mutant, when in the spaceship dissolved, I jumped into my mom's lap and asked if they would please turn down the sound as it was scaring me. I do remember the trailer showing the small airplane being drawn up into the...

    Most of us that even remember it are getting up in age. I'm sure my grandkids will enjoy it when it finally releases in what ever format is available to them at that time. :thumbsdown:
