Conquest Of Space

How far is too far?

Retro sets, atmospheric music and an action-packed story are the highlights of this enthralling science-fiction adventure. The commander of a flight to Mars endangers his crew when he gradually becomes obsessed with their precedent-setting space journey, cracks under pressure, and tries to sabotage the mission. Produced by innovative filmmaker George Pal (The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine) and directed by five-time Academy Award nominee Bryon Haskin (Treasure Island, Desperate Journey), this space-exploration odyssey vividly illustrates the premise that no matter how advanced science becomes, human weaknesses remain.
