Robot Eerie
Film Figure
Because earthmen are becoming too intelligent and are threatening to destroy thrmselves, the Robot kingdom decides to save them the trouble in “Robot Monster,” Which started its 3D run Wednesday at the Orpheum, Paramount Hollywood and Manchester Theaters.
Unfortunately, the delegate selected to do the job—that is, collectively do everyone in—falls in love. The resulting action turns out to be a “crazy, mixed-up movie,”
The picture's redeeming factor, in a sort of negative way, is that nothing is thrown at the audience, not even a little spear or rock.
Only Eight Left
When the film opens, the earth is pretty well destroyed; only eight people are left. Two are bumped off at once, a couple more take a while longer, and when the film ends we’re back to 2,000,000,000 again.
To accomplish this miracle, the seven-man cast has to keep pretty busy, especially the not-too-threatening robot, who resembles a gorilla from the neck down. The plot gets involved toward the end and hardly needs repeating.
An accompanying feature, “Run for the Hills,” merits little comment. It Stars Johnny Tufts and Barbara Payton, who do nothing to enhance a weak script involving the H-bomb and a return to caves.
With all this violence, the viewer is liable to come out a bit worse for wear, and even children may be a little bored by it all.

Note: Contrary to popular belief, ROBOT MONSTER is not in the public domain.
