Mick Garris on THE PHANTOM PLANET

We're giving the gurus a week off for the holiday, but to tide you over here's a beloved bargain-basement gobbler that impressed little Micky Garris in 1961. It's an amusing riff on Gulliver's Travels with lots of ambition and little resource. Co-star Coleen Gray must have been wondering how she got from Kubrick's The Killing to this in only five years!
