Impressively directed by Fred Wilcox - "Forbidden Planet" (set in the 23rd century) is definitely one of my very favorite SyFy films from the fabulous 50s that features some really first-rate, old-school visual effects.
Introducing "Robby the Robot" (in his first screen appearance) - "Forbidden Planet" is a pure "techno-horror" delight that also includes the very first all-electronic musical soundscape in film history.
With all of its engrossing action set on the far-off planet known as "Altair-IV" - "Forbidden Planet" is sure lotsa SyFy fun that, literally, soars clear across the galaxy, from one end of the universe and beyond.
