There was a 2 film issue of Dr Who and I'm reviewing the sequel as I have yet to see the first one.Why the interest?? Two reasons,first its Peter Cushing as the Dr. and second,he's a HUMAN,unlike the current series !!! There is a history here to explore as this film was released in 1966 with the blessing of the BBC who even kept some of the Daleks used in this film,in fact,they were in the series before the film was released.However that is the historical reason to see these films,this one runs but 84 minutes.Alas,its a 50/50 proposition as its cheesy and as silly as the series.It wasn't till 74-81 that the series really took off with Tom Baker as the Dr.,still this film is ok in its way vs the series of the day. Dalek fan should enjoy as well,as they also get a little different spin.So retro fan might want to see it and I'm still trying to get the 1965 first film"Dr Who and The Daleks".Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary below.
The Daleks' fiendish plot in 2150 against Earth and its people is foiled when Dr. Who and friends arrive from the 20th century and figure it out.
