We're sticking with 50's Sci-Fi for the month (you know, because it's so Christmas-y). But we've got something with a little bit more meat (and forehead) this week in 1955's "This Island Earth". So assemble your Interocitor and tune it in to this rant about early versions of sci-fi tropes, , a complete disregard for safety, how people in the past look older, a very useless mutant and a proto Hal Jordan that you just can't hate.
