Resplendent in patent pleather, Patricia Laffan’s alien “Queen Nyah” lands in rural Scotland on the hunt for men. With the Martian population dying out, her mission is to take men back to Mars to repopulate the planet.

Billed as the first major science-fiction film to be made in England which, while perhaps not entirely accurate, it was certainly the first to feature a hostile alien landing on British soil.

“Devil Girl From Mars” was first released in British cinemas on the 2nd of May 1954.

So bad it’s great, the science fiction film “Devil Girl From Mars” has achieved cult status for the high camp production and low-tech special effects.

Before going on to create his memorable “Supermarionation” productions including “Space: 1999“, Gerry Anderson was the sound editor on “Devil Girl from Mars”.

With an outfit that probably inspired Darth Vader’s black helmet and cape, Patricia Laffan, the eponymous devil girl herself, also starred in “Crooks in Cloisters” with Barbara Windsor, Bernard Cribbins, & Melvyn Hayes, and the 1951 epic “Quo Vadis” with Peter Ustinov.
