This review at Watching Horror Films Behind The Couch makes it sound really interesting, even if it is spliced together from original footage combined with two Russian sci-fi flicks. Trailer on YouTube

Now that I've watched the trailer, I'm going to have to track this film down! It has that Planet of Vampires sci-fi horror vibe, with a similar sinister ambiance...

Aug 28 09 9:44 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Is it true that elements from "Queen of Blood" were taken from "Battle beyond the Sun" or as it was known in Russia as "Nebo Zovyot"? http://monstermoviemusic.blogspot.com/2008/01/queen-of-blood-planet-of-blood-leonard.html

Thanks for posting the video....My buddy did a great job editing, and we hope that the powers that be see this as a fan's love of the film, and not sue us. We have no money. Gil And this is an absolute favorite film of mine. I would love to see the Russian film this was cobbled (nicely) from.

The "Dream Come True" footage included live action shots (space ship interior and rescue of a female alien) that inspired the film. There may be some footage from Voyage to a Prehistoric Planet (Planeta Bur/Planet of Storms), too -- though I'm not sure.

Aug 31 09 11:19 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I enjoy Queen of Blood and recently got a really nice copy of it recorded off of MGMHD I believe; from one of the gang here! Having just watched it and Planeta Bur very recently I didn't see any footage from Planeta in Queen - now that's just me - my wife says I can't find anything if it's right in front of me so...

More covering all the bases, rather than a strong feeling. Last Edited By: Tom Powers Aug 31 09 3:25 PM. Edited 1 times.
