Devil Girl from Mars gets the 5 Minute Drive-In treatment in this fast cut of the 1954 British sci-fi movie starring Patricia Laffan and Hazel Court.

Nyah, a Martian commander, lands in the Scottish Highlands with her robot Chani and a very specific mission: collect Earth men to help Mars. Naturally, this plan involves a flying saucer, a force field, a death ray, a remote inn, and the kind of 1950s science-fiction logic that should probably be handled by professionals.

This 5 minute edit cuts straight to the alien queen energy, robot chaos, ray-gun threats, and old-school B-movie weirdness.

5 Weird Fun Facts:
1. Devil Girl from Mars was based on a stage play.
2. Almost the whole movie happens around one Scottish inn.
3. Nyah brings a giant robot named Chani.
4. Gerry Anderson, later famous for Thunderbirds, worked as sound editor.
5. The plot is basically Mars needing Earth men, which is very 1954 and very insane.

00:03I don't believe it'll turn out to be a meteor.
00:06It isn't Robert now, Doris. Albert Simpson.
00:09You've escaped, then.
00:09I broke out of there because I couldn't stand it anymore.
00:11You're hurting me.
00:12Because I had to see you again.
00:13You killed her.
00:14It was an accident.
00:15Was it an accident you married her instead of me?
00:17I'm sorry.
00:18Mr. Simpson's a new visitor, miss.
00:20Your face seems awfully familiar to me.
00:22Doris, where's the kitchen?
00:23I wonder if you can fix us up with rooms for tonight.
00:25I'm a correspondent in the Daily Messenger.
00:26Oh, really?
00:27The Home Office has asked me to investigate a meteor that's evidently fallen near O'Connor.
00:32Mr. Carter here, he's covering the newspaper side of it.
00:35I'm sure I saw a flash of light in the sky.
00:37Really?
00:38I know you.
00:39I don't think so.
00:40Maybe he won't be so welcome when you know who he really is.
00:43When you listen to the radio, he...
00:52What's the matter with this thing? Hello, hello!
00:55Seven miles, that's where the house with the phone is.
00:57I'd like to be left here on my own.
00:58Oh, you'll be all right.
00:59We won't be long.
01:01Don't scream, please.
01:02I've never hurt anyone in my whole life on purpose.
01:04He doesn't know what really happened.
01:05It's none of my business.
01:23I've checked the carburetor and ignition.
01:25This car is perfect.
01:26I can't understand.
01:31Who are you?
01:32My name is Naya.
01:34Where do you come from?
01:35Mars.
01:35You men on Earth are much as we expected.
01:38But that's preposterous.
01:39Certainly nothing so human.
01:41You are a scientist.
01:42You are a very poor physical specimen.
01:44Why did you land here?
01:45A miscalculation.
01:46Repairs will take about four Earth hours.
01:49Many of your Earth years ago,
01:51our women were similar to yours today
01:53and ended in a bitter, devastating war between the sexes.
01:57So you've had wars, too.
01:58Women became the rulers of Mars,
02:00but now the male has fallen into a decline.
02:02The birth rate is dropping tremendously.
02:04Some of your strongest men to return with me to Mars.
02:07Oh, you're back.
02:08Your latest guest, Miss Naya.
02:10She comes from Mars.
02:11She's come from where?
02:12From Mars.
02:14Do not try to follow me.
02:15You cannot get help.
02:16No one may pass.
02:17In or out.
02:19Vanished.
02:21The invisible wall.
02:22It's there.
02:28You poor, lamented humans.
02:29Destroy me with your old-fashioned toy.
02:31What do you think you're doing?
02:32Who are you?
02:33Hang on a minute, kid.
02:34Let's look at the aeroplane.
02:36Watch the power of another world.
02:53Get up.
02:54I will deal with you later.
02:56Come.
02:56We will return to the ship.
02:58Good day.
02:59You aren't taking him anywhere.
03:00You speak unwisely.
03:03Come.
03:04I don't know whether I'm awake or dreaming.
03:07The spaceship is very powerful.
03:09Come.
03:09I must.
03:11I must.
03:12Now you shall see.
03:13A form of nuclear fission.
03:15Impossible.
03:15Talk like a primitive savage.
03:17Now we shall return to the others.
03:19Try bullets from head that night.
03:24Even your limited intelligence will convince you by now that you cannot harm me.
03:27Now you may cease your stupid tricks or I will destroy the child.
03:31Oh, dear.
03:32We've done enough talking.
03:36What is it?
03:38You have taken the child.
03:39His mind is free from your stupid emotions and fears.
03:43He will make a willing subject.
03:44Release the child and I'll follow you willingly.
03:47Oh, but that scared you.
03:48Tommy!
03:49Let us prepare for our rulers.
03:52I thought you'd gone away.
03:53What do you suppose has happened to Mr. Carter?
03:55Michael!
03:56Albert Simpson.
03:57He's upstairs.
04:07Why did you have to knock him out?
04:08It is time, Earthman.
04:10He is returning with me to Mars.
04:12I love him.
04:14The bargain was over Tommy the child.
04:20Michael!
04:21He tried to gain control of the robot.
04:23One of you will come with me.
04:25The rest will die.
04:27Must have a weak spot.
04:28When you get inside the spaceship,
04:29you will see the power crucible in a kind of shaft.
04:32Have you got a cellar?
04:33Are we really going to die?
04:34Perhaps, Doris.
04:35She probably didn't mean it.
04:36People have to have a reason for killing the right, Doris.
04:39So you are coming?
04:41Of my own pre-will.
04:48Doris, do it!
04:56Now we will all have a drink.
04:58Or in the house.
04:59Ha ha!

Is Devil Girl from Mars creepy old sci-fi, cheesy alien-invasion nonsense, or somehow both?

What is the weirdest part: Nyah collecting Earth men, the robot Chani, the Scottish inn, or Mars apparently having the worst dating crisis in cinema?
