(1959) Harry Townes, John Agar, Whitney Blake, Cecil Kellaway, Charles Aidman, Edward Platt, Gail Kobe, Frank Gerstle. Just when you thought you'd seen all the '50s sci-fi ever made, this forgotten b&w gem shows up. Destination Space is a terrific, slickly produced space opera with Agar and Towne in charge of a giant space station. During an attempted rocket launch, a meteor smashes into the station, crippling it! Later it's discovered that an overload within the rocket will cause a nuclear explosion—within minutes! Lots of space opera thrills in this intelligent, well-scripted, exciting piece of '50s sci-fi. From 16mm.
