Summary: decide for youself
Comment: I think this is one of the better ones. It was good but I was annoyed with the quarrelling astronauts. The movie then turned into a drama of how the poor cat women were falling for the scientists and then the supirior cat women go ga ga over the quarrlesome earth man. Why couldnt the cat women come out on top? I liked the theme song. The kind of movie you could leave running before going to bed.

Summary: Worst SiFi ever made?
Comment: I first saw this movie when it was new. It was terrible then but now it is a classic. It lacks the class of The Rocky Horror Picture Show in that TRHPS was meant to be a spoof. These people appear to be serious. Watch it and fall out of your chair laughing. A monument to the really bad sifi of the era. Every time you think it can't get worse, it does.
Well worth the price for a classic.

Summary: Men deprived Cat Women in Black Leotards!
Comment: Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R1QDJ12E0X7C7H Original 1953 Black & White trailer shows why this movie was deemed "The most startling picture of the century!" 3-D glasses are not required. Enjoy!

Summary: This isn't even fun to watch, not "Queen of Outer Space" worthy!
Comment: I purchased this movie thinking that it would be in the same league as "Queen of Outer Space" with Zsa Zsa Gabor. "Queen" was a hilarious, campy, over-the-top tongue-in-cheek female-dominated planet movie. It's hilarious from beginning to end and totally entertaining in a ridiculous way. It's funny as heck.
"Cat women of the Moon" just plain sucked! It takes itself so seriously, the plot is horrific, it's SUPER short, black and white (the cover leads one to believe it is colorized?), the characters are bland and just plain dumb! My wife and sat in disbelief at how BAD this flick was when it was over....There are some of those movies that are "so bad they're good." This is NOT one of those! Movies like "Dracula vs. Frankenstein," "Laserblast," "Plan Nine from Outer Space," "Frogs," "Empire of the Ants," etc. are all so corney that they are just a blast to watch. "Cat Women" just plain is cruddy. Don't waste the nine bucks!!

Summary: Cat-women is still a dreamy movie
Comment: The lead males are impossibly homely, more parts of the spaceship move about when those actors bump into them than when the spaceship is actually in space, and the strings that move the spider in the cave on the moon are shamelessly exposed-and yet there is still something compelling about Cat-Women Of the Moon. Maybe it was the dreamy musical score by Leonard Bernstein, it could have also been the evocative minimalist sets of the cat palace on the moon, or it may have been the mysterious, underplayed beauty of the cat-women themselves with their cat-dance, but in the end this movie may win you over. Despite the pretty crappy acting from most of the lead actors, the story of the movie is interesting, because a very sophisticated question is implied of just how far a species can and should go to preserve itself. If it were the human race that was in its 11th hour and 59th minute of existence, how justified would we be in taking any means necessary for our own species' survival? A more pedestrian perspective of course would be to slant the movie as another product of the cold war with the omnipresent fears of communist domination. Personally, it's more fun to imagine what could have been, than fear what might be. Other items: the transfer is decent to outstanding, especially the cat-palace scenes. The sound quality is excellent. The paucity of extras, however, should be what most viewers who've trucked with Image Entertainment in the past would now come to expect. Get this DVD when it's on sale-don't waste the 19.99 on it.
