This is one of my favorite movies from the sixties. It is great for non SciFi fans as well as those that enjoy the genre. Men and Women alike find it entertaining. And since the violence is very minimal it is great for the whole family. Although not a true Robinson Crusoe story it has all the similar flavor to that great book by Defoe. This was not a movie with a large budget so those that appreciate the detailed work that goes into movies like this will be pleasantly surprised. The acting, sets, and music are exceptional considering what they had to work with. The director should be very proud of this little gem. If you like reality shows you should find this even more to your liking. A lone spacer must survive the harsh conditions of the unforgiving planet Mars. Beyond all odds he manages to survive and rescue a monkey and a slave. Don't miss this one. Unfortunately it is not available on VHS or DVD so you will have to catch it on TV.
