Fire Maidens of Outer Space (1956)

aka Fire Maidens from Outer Space

How bad is it? It's a remake of Cat Women of the Moon. Case closed: bad.
Should you see it? Yes.

Three years after the dud "Cat Women of the Moon," the Brits decided to make their own version of the film. Astronauts land on a planet that has only one man left, along with all of his beautiful daughters. They apparently are descendants of the island of Atlantis. There's a monster, of course, and it gets killed in the end... by shooting it. With one shot. There's also a number of dance sequences, including one to Borodin's "Polovetsin Dances" - try not to sing "Stranger in Paradise" to yourself when you hear it.
