Tobor the Great
A neglected sci-fi gem about enemy agents who plot to abduct America's latest secret invention: a giant, thought-controlled robot built for space exploration. After the baddies kidnap the inventor's grandson as part of their scheme, they discover that the boy has formed a powerful bond with the mechanical man. A time capsule of a film, making the most of documentary footage of early space research and thinly veiled public fears over Commies and the Space Race.
