Sinopsis:

In a secret space mission, a joint team of US and UK rocketmen hurtle into space to explore the thirteenth moon of Jupiter. Enshrouded in both fog and mystery, only this moon has the potential to sustain life as we know it. Upon landing, these five explorers encounter not only the remnants of Atlantis, but over a dozen nubile maidens and their "father" Prasus. Eager to launch New Atlantis but without enough men to help populate the society, Prasus is overjoyed to receive these male guests. While the rocket crew can hardly believe their good fortune, this lunar paradise is regularly menaced by a surly monster known only as The Creature, and trusting Prasus may lead to their deep space doom! A cheery relic of genre film past, FIRE MAIDENS OF OUTER SPACE is a delirious classic of 1950s sci-fi, when only a vague concept of astronomy and the lure of women alone could fill the right kind of theater. American Cy Roth (Combat Squad) wrote, produced, and directed this British production with fellow American Anthony Dexter (The Phantom Planet, Valentino) playing team leader Luther Blair. Also featuring Paul Carpenter (Intent to Kill, The Unholy Four) as the ship's captain and Susan Shaw (Blonde Blackmailer, Carry On Nurse) as Hestia, the maiden who's caught Blair's eye and just may help the team return to Earth. Vinegar Syndrome Labs proudly presents this beloved atomic age romp on Blu-ray in a new 4K scan and restoration.
