The Secret of the Third Planet

(Spoiler Section Length - 4min 24sec)

We've watched several Russian films on this podcast before, but most of them were fantasy in nature, rather than sci-fi. This is an off-beat sort of sci-fi, but nonetheless is full of aliens, spaceships, laser guns and robots! Debuting a few years after Star Wars, this film still seems more rooted in older depictions of spaceships and more groovy sensibilities, despite releasing in the 80s. At just under 50 minutes, is this odd little movie worth the time investment? Listen to find out!
