Growing up in Milford Michigan deep in the country my dad and i watched the Sci-Fi movie of week. It was Saturday nights. Im 65 yrs old. All these classic movies i have seen before . We would have freshly made Hot popcorn and a Pepsi.
To this day i only watch classic movies. Im not a fan of movies made in today's world. Watching a good classic like this movie i find as intrigued today as i was as that little boy eating Popcorn and enjoying
My dad worked through the week and would be tired. But Saturdays i was his top priority to make sure i had a wonderful Saturday. I was a only child.Im so blessed to have had the loving parents i had.As a little boy my mom taught me how to cook and do things.
She said someday I would be married and shared responsibilities are important in being married. Im happily married and have a family i wonder if parents today take the time to do things as parents did back then. For some reason this movie brought back memories and good memories they are, ❤
Oh ja es gibt diese Menschen auch heute noch. Ich mach genau das Gleiche. Hier wird nach altem Stil gekocht, Filme gesehen, Sonntags Spaziergang, die Fläche vor dem Haus am sSonntag säubern, Gemeinschaft pflegen, selbst versorgen und Ökologie und Ökonomie als Tagespflicht ansehen und und und
In all seriousness, ever see or hear any dogmen?
Yeah, we definitely had some great movies back in the day. One of my favorite syfy movies was "Them," a true classic...
P&P - Popcorn and Pepsi..... Mahlzeit😂
You ought to watch Blast from the Past since it more or less focusses in a humourous way the demise of good old fashioned manners.
I grew up watching old films since I was 13 years old, I'm 23 years old now and I keep watching them because without the wisdom of the past we wouldn't know anything about the future, great film my name is Emanuel Jeronimo, thank you
I have to say 2 things to you. 1) I'm 50 and I've been watching old sci-fi and regular films since I was 9 or so. it really interested me then and still does now. 2) you must be the most rare young human on the planet because most dudes your age would cringe to watch old classic movies. God bless you and Keep on educating yourself.
😅 In fact, my mother always tells me this: you love old things just like your father. There's a person from the past inside you
@@bigben1986 my respect to you it would be a pleasure to meet you in person and hear about your adventures in the 80s
@@bigben1986 Here a 20 YO dude who enjoy and apreciate those movies!😂
I know I'm not like others but... How Am I supposed to feel cringe to watch old classic movies? I love them!, I love the cinema, the classic and the old movies, they are just my passion!
Hope you have a nice day and a Happy New Year!! 😊
Ok this is awesome. I guess it;s the younger dudes I'm surrounded by who just hate anything that happened last week lol Glad you like the old stuff it is very interesting because a lot of scifi was out way before NASA was created which at times has me thinking. Happy New Year to you as well. @@kashmirsabbath2479
"Battle Beyond the Sun" is a 1962 science fiction film. It is an English-dubbed and re-edited American version of "Nebo Zovyot", a 1959 Soviet science fiction film. Roger Corman acquired the Soviet film for US distribution and hired a young film-school student named Francis Ford Coppola to "Americanize" it. Like the original Soviet Nebo Zovyot, Battle Beyond the Sun is a tale of a "space race" between two nations competing to become the first to land a spacecraft on the planet Mars; unlike the original, in which the competing nations are the USSR and the US, Battle Beyond the Sun focuses on the fictional future countries of North Hemis and South Hemis. The names of not only the Soviet characters, but also their performers, and the crew credits as well, were altered on the screen to American-sounding names in order to further disguise the film's origins: thus Soviet stars Aleksandr Shvorin and Ivan Pereverzev became "Andy Stewart" and "Edd Perry", and Soviet directors Mikhail Karyukov and Aleksandr Kozyr became "Maurice Kaplin" and "Arthur Corwin" - and were demoted to Assistant Director status as well. The Overlook Film Guide: Science-Fiction remarked: "(One) remains impressed with Corman's cheek and financial astuteness than with the finished film." While recommending the original version, The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction called the Americanized version "butchered" (Wikipedia)
Just buy these comments the two countries are still battling 😢
Cette version n'est pas massacrée ! Voilà ce qui est massacré : l'adaptation cinématographique de la série de TV "Lost in Space" de 1964 !
Indeed it is Butchered.
Thank you for your great insight. I could tell by the overall style that this was a Soviet film,
but came here to receive enlightenment. You're very knowledgeable on the subject.
If this was colorized, it was a fine job. I never heard of this before. Enjoyed it. I'll be 80 in a few weeks. We didn't watch TV growig up. Jan. 30, 2024. St. Joseph, MO, USA
The movie was actually shot in color.
Come on, guys - it's nothing about Roger Corman, it is - definitely - the Soviet sci-fi movie "Nebo Zovet" ("The Sky Is Calling"), filmed in 1959 at Dovzhenko Studio under the direction of Alexander Kozyr and Michail Kriukov.
Corman apparently had a thing for Iron Curtain sci-fi. He also kinda/sorta borrowed the Russian "Planeta Bur", threw in a couple scenes with Basil Rathbone, and called it "Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet"
If it's the same movie that I think it is, it was also re-edited again. It was called Voyage To The Planet Of Prehistoric Women. Somewhere in storage I have a copy of both. The second time they edited in a bunch of scenes with women in leather bikinis. It's one of the worst B movies I've ever seen. Actually it's more like a Z movie, that's how bad it was.
I believe that in the 50s America and the USSR trusted each other more and there was friendship. Of course, between nations, ordinary people. This does not concern politicians in power. There was an exchange of knowledge between scientists. Now science is stomping on the spot. Corporations (TNCs), greedy for money, are to blame for everything. They don't understand that they won't take anything with them to the next world.

Oh this is one of my favorites!
😊Michael Chambers: How about you? You still on Earth, or on the ship, with me? Well, it doesn't make very much difference because sooner or later we'll, all of us, be on the menu. All of us.
I never heard of this movie before... that said:
In 1959, he made Battle Beyond the Sun.
In 1980, Roger Corman felt one sun wasn't enough....so he made Battle Beyond the Stars! (One of my favorite movies as a kid, and a nice tribute to Seven Samurai and The Magnificent Seven ...which also featured Robert Vaughan).
In reality, Corman only edited the original 1959 Russian film in 1962, cutting scenes and adding others filmed by Coppola, such as the fight of the monsters.
Do not bother. You really missed NOTHING.
Love old Sci Fi!!!
No overtime at Roger's shop. At 5 pm they would say "that's good enough" and head home.
И где ещё играют комсомольцы😮
J'ai vu quelques classiques du cinéma de science fiction avec mes parents dans les années 1968-69 sur notre télévision en noir et blanc (War of the World, Forbidden Planet et les séries TV Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea ; the Invaders...) Je ne connaissais pas ce film, mais je le trouve super ! Et bien supérieur à ce que l'on peut voir aujourd'hui ! Merci beaucoup du partage !
The Wiki on this flick is mind-blowing!!!
Thank you for uploading this. There is a very good movie in there and I am impressed!
I love these old SciFi movies. The dream of the future but they are a picture of their time when they have been produced. This movie has been influenced by the cold war after WWII and the wish for world peace.
I like the design of the space station.
Super! Thank you very much!
Did you noted the similarity between the Mercury ship landing and Space X ones? Year 1962! Amazing. We are living the sy-fy becoming real
It's "sci-fi". Forrest J. Ackerman coined the term.
This is almost a different film. I found the original Soviet film to be more interesting and complete.

🧐 Now I see where musk was inspired to develop Starship... 😬
Love sifi these old sifi brilliant great little movie 🎥🎥
I prefer sf films.
Mars was a lot closer in those days
Awesome Sci-Fi!!!! 😎
But not very good sf.
I have watched this movie. I was scared of watching the fight between space monsters
Yes me to had nightmares for weeks never forgot this movie
So this is how Coppola got started. Who could have known how far he would go?
Gracefull.
Full power through the universe!
they landed on a star... that' s a hot one!
On a ⭐. 😂 🤣 ❤️
You may have seen on TH-cam short vids of modern movies if they were made in the 50s. For instance the movies Star Wars or Alien if they were 1950s movies. This is frankly a complete movie in the style those vids are trying to emulate. Its amazing to see.
I was rather impressed with the production quality of this film. And the dubbing into English was done fairly neatly. I understand that in translating and editing the film is not quite what the Soviet union initially produced. However, since this is the only version available in English that I know of it’s better to at least see, this beautiful film than to never see it at all
Also really good soundtrack👍
Засирали мозги жителей земли
Üdv születésem előtt készült film nagyon csodálatos köszönöm szépen a fel töltést
We need more Roger Corman
nope. This is a pathetic edited version. Original is 2hours. Watch that. And also do some research on the ways Mr Corman did business. Not a good guy even by today’s Hollywood standards
Corman is a outlaw. 👎

This is a neat looking Rocket and will work today.
I’m getting SpaceX Starship vibes for sure
Complete with indoor hockey rink.
Good film

The rocket had CCCP on the side of it. So much for south Hemi.
1:58 воздушный взрыв. Вижу такие кадры впервые.
What a great start! Thanks for posting.
This is an edited american version. Battle Beyond the Sun started as a state-sponsored Russian sci-fi movie called Nebo Zovyat- a breath-taking, prophetic vision of the Soviet Union's journey into space; in the disrespectful hands of opportunistic producer Roger Corman and a young and eager-to-please Francis Ford Coppola, what was once awe-inspiring becomes laughable, the pair badly dubbing and drastically re-editing the original two hour epic to a mere 64-minutes of clumsy space melodrama (albeit it with impressive effects), 'enhanced' by silly inserts of space monsters
A monster with a vagina-mouth fighting a monster with phallic stalk-eyes. Stealth porn. But done so poorly the censors didn't catch on.
Wow that was informative👍
Yet being exposed, even this changed version allows a great number of people to see the cinematic capabilities of that era. It’s far better to see it even if edited to not see it at all it will prompt people to look into films of this time. period from the Soviet union and that’s a good thing.
God bless and thank you for this information. 🙏
They ruined a wonderful Soviet film.The film was turned into a clowning.
Incredible effects and technical stuff for 1959. The later 60's Star Trek pales in comparison.
The later '60s Star Trek was television and had a shoestring budget by comparison, while having to make dozens of episodes on said budget.
Try comparing apples to apples, not to horseshoes.
Did no one think of telling the Northern Hemis lads that they went in the wrong direction for Mars, since they found themselevs pulled in towards the sun? And what a feat that was for the Southern Hemis lads - heading for Mars, then going back towards the sun to collect the men in danger and then ending up on a rock orbiting Mars almost in touching distsnce of the red planet. No wonder they ran out of fuel!
Roger Corman vs Ed Wood,
Who wins?
If there were such a contest I’d probably vote for Corman just on the strength of his Edgar Allan Poe films and The Little Shop of Horrors and some other films, plus being a mentor to such directors as Coppola, Scorsese and Peter Bogdanovich, not that one can’t still respect Plan 9 from Outer Space, Glen and Glenda, Bride of the Monster etc. They were both two unique film directors.

Cold War Soviet movie. The rocket at take-off shows the Soviet's Red Sar. Also, featuring the "One-Eyed Munster. Battle Beyond the Sun is a 1962 science fiction film. It is an English-dubbed and re-edited American version of Nebo Zovyot, a 1959 Soviet science fiction film. Roger Corman acquired the Soviet film for US distribution and hired a young film-school student named Francis Ford Coppola to "Americanize" it.
"Heading South Hemis' *top secret* project 'Red Planet' was Dr. Albert Gordon" - (Face+Palm) - What could they possibly be planning, surely there must be *some* sort of clue?
Do more Hedy Lamarrre films❤
Ich bemerke es immer wieder, diese klassischen Scores, eingespielt von Sinfonieorchestern sind einfach unwiderstehlich und unverzichtbar für die stimmungsvolle Atmosphäre alter Filme. Verglichen mit heutigen oftmals nervig u. sinnentleerten Syntieschwaden ist seitdem doch einiges verloren gegangen.
Ha, ein denkwürdiges Jahr, da bin ich geboren worden! ;-) Oha, ein roter Stern an der Seitenflosse der Zubringerrakete!
I had to suspend my disbelief a little when the North Hemis left to Mars with only a few hours of prep time 😁
I wonder if this is the original score? The main theme or melody is very reminiscent of Destination Moo n (1950)
Space X Falcon 9 landing in 1959!
Even more of this: it's the Soviet (!) spaceship ))
No friggin' mosquitoes in space!!
Dr. Ruth!! Francis Ford Coppola!! Roger Corman!!
Spiffing flick !. Before digital , effects are brilliant . Why Russian star on spaceship and red coloured suits ?. I was 7yrs. old in 59. Thanks dudes. Dave
"Why Russian star on spaceship and red coloured suits ?" - Because it's the Soviet movie "The Sky I Calling", filmed in 1959, and a bit edited and translated into English in 1962 by Corman.
1:40 "Associate Producer: Francis Ford Coppola" 😲
You know it's a Corman film when his name is the only one you recognize in the credits.😮
12:15 I've seen this outer space footage before.
I Likeeee !
С удивлением узнала что это советский фильм
E.M. inspiration...Tanks... Funny

The lost book of Enki depicts Niburu when the north and south had constant wars earlier, then they agreed upon kingship with one king or queen from each hemisphere.
1997. Wow that is so far into the future. 😂😂
That's where SpaceX got the mustard for their Falcon.
looked like a SpaceX booster landing
Love the emotionless dubbing.
we would be past living this now, if uman beans could work together
Alguém saberia me dizer, por gentileza, aonde encontro esse filme maravi lhoso com legendas em português?
Включите субтитры- автоперевод- и выберите нужный язык.
I found all the acting stiff and devoid of emotion, it looked like a bunch of chess pieces in space suits. Then I noticed it was made in the Soviet Union.
Anyone who knows about a 50s or maybe 60s space exploration film like this where there is a giant snake? Saw it as a kid and have been looking everywhere on IMDB and here on youtube
Parece que estuviese viendo el Space X!!!!😮😮😮😮😮😄😄🤟🤟🤟👏👏
With Francis Ford Coppola as associate producer .... 😊
A few things I noticed: the announcer at the begging said " O 2100 hours" There is no O 2100 hours. The secret project was called "red planet". That is too obvious. There is only one red planet in our solar system, and I don't believe anyone was planning on going outside it.
They're in Dar es Salaam!"😅
One half hour in and I still don't know what this movie is about.
I know that our Sun is not the center of the Universe, but to my mind it is the zero point of reference for measurements. Everything, even earth, is beyond the Sun.
This is russian sci fi not american.
During this movie a brief info of another movie suggestion poped up. Over halfway through the movie. It mentioned genticly altered Reptillians. Anyone know the name of this old movie? Mahalo in advance
@54:00, the space monsters Corman put in the Russian film.
Was ich nicht verstehe, warum nennt Ihr den deutschen Filmtitel wenn der Film doch in englischer Sprache ist. Jeder Film bis auf die paar deutschsprachigen sind so, also mich nervt das weil ich immer denke das der Film in deutsch ist. Ich hab den Kanal schon länger abonniert und die Filme sind auch gut, nur wenn die Filme auf englisch sind gib ihnen doch einfach ihren Originaltitel und jeder weiss woran er ist. Schönen Gruß Andi
I'm surprised. This film was produced by Francis Ford Coppola. No joke, says so in the credits at the beginning.
The film was shot and produced in the USSR (surprise!)))) and was simply briefly edited and translated into English. So Coppola is very far from this particular production.
❤❤❤❤
Decent 5/10...
👍
Little bit of a Kubrick vibe in opening credits 😮
Just a detail: the movie was filmed in 1959 in USSR ))
@@VsevolodBarinoff cool 😎
@@DavidBorda-oz9mu As to Kubrick vibes: just last night I watched both 2001 and 2010 Space Odysseys - super sci-fi classics, absolutely brilliant, even if they are a little slow by modern movie standards. Honestly, the first space episode of SO 2001 ( with "Blue Danube" soundtrack) comes very good with a glass of good cognac )))

In a 1959 movie they had a RED STAR on the tail ?????? Wow !!!

Civilization on the brink but it looks kinda like business as usual at the Ole space command 😅
Physics and logic be damned! Both space agencies require special rockets to get to Mars, yet a standard transport rocket loaded with fuel gets there and back no problem. You did notice that the transport rocket took off from Anchor, but it was Mercury landing on Earth? The Mercury rocket that had to be built and flown in space because it could not handle the aerodynamic forces of Earth's atmosphere. 🤔
