‘Killers from Space’ is a 1954 American science fiction film directed by W. Lee Wilder. The story follows Dr. Douglas Martin, a nuclear scientist who survives a plane crash near an atomic test site but mysteriously returns with no memory of what happened. As he begins acting strangely, authorities suspect foul play. Under hypnosis, Martin recalls being abducted by aliens from the planet Astron Delta, who plan to use Earth's atomic energy to create giant mutant creatures and take over the planet. The film blends Cold War-era paranoia with classic sci-fi tropes, making it a cult favorite among 1950s B-movies.
