X From Outer Space, The 1967 DVD

Japan's Mars exploration program has been plagued by a string of disasters. Vowing one final attempt, they launch another spaceship for the red planet, with a scheduled stop over at a moon base. The astronauts find themselves menaced by a strange UFO, and suffer damage from a meteor shower, which forces them to return to Earth - but not before taking a sample of strange spores which have attached themselves to the hull of their ship. Upon their return, the spores grow into Guilala, a fierce giant monster which feeds on energy, and threatens all of Japan. The race is on to discover Guilala's weakness before it is too late.
The X From Outer Space features one of the most comical of Japanese monsters, accompanied by a jazzy 60's style musical score. Only in a movie like this will you see astronauts enjoying cocktails and dancing on the moon, and going out on the town on the evening of their return to earth. Not to be missed!
