Teenagers from Outer Space, released as The Gargon Terror in the UK and originally titled The Ray Gun Terror, is a 1959 Science fiction film about an Extraterrestrial life space ship landing on Earth to use it as a farm for its food supply. The crew of the ship includes teenagers, two of whom oppose each other in their activities. The independent film was originally distributed by Warner Bros.. The film was later featured in episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, Elvira’s Movie Macabre, and Off Beat Cinema.
Teenagers from Outer Space was filmed on location in and around Hollywood, California, with a number of tell-tale landmarks like Bronson Canyon in Griffith Park and Hollywood High School giving away the film’s hazy locale. One notable aspect of the film is that it was largely the work of a single person, Tom Graeff, who, in addition to playing the role of reporter Joe Rogers, wrote, directed, edited, and produced the film, on which he also provided cinematography, special effects, and music coordination. Producers Bryan and Ursula Pearson (“Thor” and “Hilda”) and Gene Sterling (“The Leader”) provided the film’s $14,000 budget, which was less than shoestring, even by the standards of the time.
