Synopsis:


In the outer reaches of deep space, the spaceship Galliott responds to a distress signal from Aura, an unexplored planet. As the ship attempts to land, members of the crew inexplicably begin to attack one another. This is the start of a terrifying expedition into the unknown, one plagued by paranoia, possession and violent mayhem wrought upon the unsuspecting explorers by the planet's mysterious inhabitants. A sci-fi horror hybrid from genre master Mario Bava ( Blood and Black Lace ), Planet of the Vampires is widely regarded as one of the most influential genre films ever made, with a clear influence on films such as Alien and Pitch Black . With a uniquely chilly atmosphere and fantastic production design that lies in its low budget origins, Planet of the Vampires is a true genre classic.
