| Friday, February 6, 2009 Attack From Space (1964)7 PM Holy benevolent-alien bailout! It’s Starman! When leaders of the planet Emerald send their best superhero to rescue the Earth, evil aliens from the Sapphire Galaxy turn and scatter like so much antimatter. “Attack From Space” was produced by the prolific Shintoho Motion Picture Company of Japan, the same folks that brought you “Evil Brain from Outer Space,” a previous First Friday feature. Both of these movies conjoin two episodes from the Super Giant series of the late 1950s. “Attack” blends “The Artificial Satellite and the Destruction of Humanity” with “The Spaceship and the Clash of the Artificial Satellite.”
