Peaceful people living off nature are attacked by lasers that turn them into stone.... News of this reaches an alien capital, who send a young agent to investigate....
He first encounters a group of mutants, who were created at the capital a thousand years earlier, then discarded for being ugly...
He learns that the attackers are an army of robots who worship a giant brain.... But the brain wants to help him, but the agent needs to sleep for a thousand years so that the brain will be older & weaker...
From a really bad VHS rip...
Slow & plodding at times, mostly confusing.....
This is one of those movies that back in the days of VHS rental stores, I'd read the back cover & put it back, & walk past it on future visits..... Then I read about it on the internet......
The style kept reminding me of Fantastic Planet(1973), & I couldn't stop thinking about that....

Tonight's Stinker: The Vampire Bat (1933)
Tonight's Stinker
The Vampire Bat (1933)
https://youtu.be/IctQwO6YYpQ?si=PyZ58SAiSCz1-mw7
In a small German town, a serial killer is leaving victims with neck wounds, drained of blood during an infestation of bats..... Naturally, the locals speak of vampires, & citing historic examples of one...
Fingers are quickly pointed at the wild eyed village idiot who keeps bats for pets... But after he's killed, we find out it's really the local doctor, who needs the blood for a breathing potato in a fish tank....
Not too bad.... Really cool scene in this print, about halfway through, where they computer colorized the flames of torches wielded by angry peasants....
