Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this low-budget British science fiction tale (which, not surprisingly, has gained a cult following), Nyah (Patricia Laffan), a statuesque, leather-clad woman from another world, lands near a small Scottish town with her trusty robot in tow. It seems that Mars has recently seen a dramatic drop in their male population, and if the Martian species is to survive, healthy men are needed to serve as husbands on the red planet. Nyah has been sent forth to bring Earth men back with her, but the local Scotsmen aren't so interested in going -- and their women aren't about to give them up without a fight. The supporting cast includes horror fan favorite Hazel Court and Hugh McDermott.
