The Purple Monster Strikes 78 years old
SEE IT FOR NEW THRILLS! It's out of this world for pulse-pounding adventure!
A Martian invader crashes his spaceship conveniently close to the workshop of a scientist who is developing an interplanetary craft. If the extraterrestrial Purple Monster can complete the rocket ship and return to Mars, he will be able to start a full-scale invasion of Earth. Good thing Craig Foster sets out to thwart the Monster's mission!
