However, as Savant points out, the film&#8217;s &#8220;appeal lies in director Bava&#8217;s creation of an eerie and unsettling alien world that is its own reason for being&#8221; &#8212; and it&#8217;s the stunning visuals that keep one consistently engaged in the story. Indeed, for such a low-budget picture, it&#8217;s astonishing how much colorful atmosphere Bava and his creative team manage to pack into each frame of the movie; I couldn&#8217;t help myself from snapping still after still as evidence (see below). While it&#8217;s ultimately too uneven to be considered any kind of a classic of the genre, Bava fans will most certainly want to check this one out &#8212; and all film fanatics should take a one-time look simply due to its cult status. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wonderfully atmospheric low-budget sets and visual effects (though not necessarily of the spaceships&#8230;)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2-1024x539.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-27164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2-128x67.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets2.png 1047w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3-1024x539.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-27165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3-128x67.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets3.png 1047w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4-1024x539.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-27166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4-128x67.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets4.png 1047w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5-1024x539.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-27160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5-128x67.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets5.png 1047w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6-1024x539.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"337\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-27161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6-128x67.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/09\/Planet-of-the-Vampires-Sets6.png 1047w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes, as a creatively produced and influential cult favorite.
