TMBDOS! Episode 310: "It Conquered the World" (1956) & "Battle Beyond the Stars" (1980).

Lee and Daniel kick-off an extended series on films either directed by (or in some way overseen by) the late Roger Corman. This time out it's the somewhat shoddy, but fun alien invasion flick "It Conquered the World" (1956), staring Lee Van Cleef and a very game Beverly Garland. Then they tackle the biggest swing Corman had made towards a mainstream sci-fi picture, with his "Magnificent Seven" in space film "Battle Beyond the Stars" (1980). Lots of ground is covered in this one, so round up your posse of space mercs and get ready to fight mind-controlling pickles from Venus.
