AFS Essential: Planet of the Vampires

If the Italian name of the vampires-in-space sci-fi movie playing tonight at the Alamo Downtown (that would be "TERRORE NELLO SPAZIO") doesn't give you a thrill of glee, how about this line of the description?

"...the crew soon discovers the crashed Argos—and learns that her crew died fighting each other!"

No? You have a hard and boring heart, my friend. This film, part of the AFS' summer foreign scifi series, "Other Minds, Other Worlds: Global Sci-fi Cinema", follows the story of some astronauts who discover a planet filled with "a race of bloodless aliens who seek to escape from their dying world." Reminds us of John Carpenter's Ghosts of Mars—only a good thing. See you there.
