After destroying a huge asteroid that was on a rapid collision course with Earth, a group of astronauts discover they have accidentally returned to their space station with an alien slime creature that feeds on radiation and can reproduce rapidly from its own blood. PlotA group of astronauts set out to blow up the asteroid Flora, which is now on a rapid collision course with the Earth. They land on the asteroid, plant explosive charges, and destroy it, barely escaping being destroyed by the explosion's massive shockwave. Afterwards, they return to the mission's staging area, space station Gamma 3, in high Earth orbit. Unfortunately, a scientist from the mission has unwittingly carried back a luminous-green substance on the leg of his spacesuit, which quickly mutates into one-eyed, tentacled monsters with the ability to discharge lethal bolts of electricity. The Gamma 3 crew fend off the alien creatures with their laser-based weaponry, only to discover the creatures feed off the laser energy which, in turn, allows them to multiply rapidly, sprouting even more one-eyed creatures from their own blood. As the creatures overrun the station, the crew continues to fight back against overwhelming odds. The proceedings are further complicated by a love triangle consisting of two commanders and a female doctor. Cast{{col div}}
ProductionThe Green Slime was a co-production between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Toei.[2] MGM provided the funding and script while Toei provided the film crew and location to shoot the film.[2]The original storyline for The Green Slime originated in Italy, where MGM also had dealings.[2] Years before The Green Slime went into production, MGM had contracted Italian filmmaker Antonio Margheriti to direct what was originally intended to be a series of four television movies about the adventures of a space station called Gamma One.[2] Margheriti's films in the series consisted of Wild, Wild Planet, War of the Planets, War Between the Planets and Snow Devils, all created over a period of three months and released in 1965.[2] MGM was impressed with Margheriti's films and released the four films theatrically.[2] Gamma One producers Manley and Reiner were eager to take advantage of these films and made The Green Slime as an unofficial fifth entry in the film series.[2] The only connection the film had to Margheriti's films is the space station, retitled Gamma Three, which had a similar design as the one in Margheriti's films.[2] Green Slime was shot in Japan with a predominantly Asian film crew and Caucasian actors.[1] Aside from Horton, Jaeckel and Paluzzi, the rest of the cast consisted of amateur and semi-professional Caucasian actors living in Japan at the time.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=172}} Yoshikazu Yamasawa was the cinematographer,{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=326}} and the film was edited by Osamu Tanaka.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=326}} Toshiaki Tsushima composed the original score.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=326}} Charles Fox re-scored much of the film for its release in United States, including the title song.[12]ReleaseThe Green Slime was released in Japan in December 1968.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=327}} The film premiered in the United States on December 1, 1968, and received a general release on May 21, 1969.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=327}} The Japanese version of the film runs for 77 minutes in comparison to the 90-minute American version released by MGM,{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=326}}[13] removing the arguments between Rankin and Elliot.[3][4]Home mediaThe Japanese version of the film was released on DVD without English subtitles or dub in 2004.[4] On October 26, 2010, the American version of the film was released on DVD as part of the Warner Archive Collection. On October 10. 2017, Warner released a high-definition Blu-ray version.[5] ReceptionContemporary reviews of the film were mostly negative.{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=172}} Monthly Film Bulletin referred to the film as "junior league science fiction" that was "certainly schoolboy stuff". The review commented on the monsters in the film, stating that "the first appearance of the green slime looks promising, but the transformation of the lurid jelly into stock monsters is something of a let-down".[6] Variety referred to the film as "a poor man's version of 2001", and described the story, script and special effects as "amateurish".{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=172}} The New York Times stated that the film "opens promisingly, keeps it up for about half an hour but then fades badly [...] the picture falls to pieces when the green menace becomes an army of rubbery-looking goblins".[7] In a retrospective review, Stuart Galbraith IV discussed the film in his book Japanese Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films, finding that Fukasaku's direction was "flat and uninteresting" and that the special effects by ex-Toho employees Yukio Manoda and Akira Watanabe were worse than their previous work with Eiji Tsuburaya, noting that the "miniatures are badly lit and lacking in detail".{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=172}} Galbraith commented that the film was "ultimately undone by some of the most laughably ridiculous monsters in screen history" and that "the film isn't bad until the critters show up".{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=169}}{{sfn|Galbraith IV|1994|p=171}} In Phil Hardy's book Science Fiction (1984), the film was described as "not a very convincing entry in the vegetable monster movie subgenre".{{sfn|Hardy|1984|p=272}} On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 22% based on {{nowrap|9 reviews}}, with a weighted average rating of 4.9 out of 10.[8] Aftermath and influenceThe Green Slime was used for the pilot episode of the film-mocking television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 in 1988 on KTMA.{{sfn|Morgan|2015|p=1}}{{sfn|Morgan|2015|p=2}} The episode differed from others as it lacked the character Tom Servo, instead featuring a puppet named Beeper who only spoke in beeps that Crow T. Robot could understand.{{sfn|Morgan|2015|p=1}}{{sfn|Morgan|2015|p=2}} See also
