Movie Description
Shakespeare's THE TEMPEST is transformed in this landmark science-fiction film. Spacemen travel to a planet ruled by Dr. Edward Morbius (Walter Pidgeon), who has built a kingdom with his daughter and obedient robot Robby. The good doctor is plagued by his mad quest for knowledge through his "brain booster" machine, and by Freudian "monsters from the id" as his daughter discovers other men and learns to kiss.

Credits
Cast:Anne Francis, Leslie Nielsen, Walter Pidgeon, Warren Stevens
Director:Fred M. Wilcox
Producer:Nicholas Nayfack
