The unexpected deaths of two scientists in a top-secret underground base is just the start of a deadly chain of events involving two state-of-the-art robots named Gog and Magog. The third of producer Ivan Tors’s films about the fictious “Office of Scientific Investigation,” this sci-fi mystery has imagery that foretells such genre classics as The Andromeda Strain and The Power. Released at the tail end of the 1950s 3D boom, this is a rare chance to see Gog in its original format, and a rarer chance to see a flame-thrower-wielding Herbert Marshall fight off a robot.
