The wealthy patriarch of the Sinclair family lives in mortal fear of being buried alive because he suffers from a rare condition that causes him, at times, to appear lifeless. So, when he dies, his relatives learn that his will stipulates that nobody will see a penny unless they follow a strict set of orders which would allow for him to "return from the dead." When the relations refuse to comply with his wishes, he returns from the grave and proceeds to exact his revenge on his insubordinate kin, killing each of them in precisely the ways they most fear.

L’histoire de ce film n’est pas commune : Le film original, datant de 1962, était soviétique et s’appelait Planeta Bur. Ses droits ayant été rachetés par un Américain, ces films ont bien sûr modifié l’œuvre soviétique comme cela les arrangeait. Le tout dans un contexte de guerre froide et de course à l’espace… Mais seules les trois premières minutes décrivent l’arsenal spatial américain. Cette petite introduction laisse alors place à la voix d’un des astronautes qui sera notre narrateur. Il évoque l’attirance qu’il a eue pour une créature de Venus. Une créature qu’il n’a jamais rencontrée, mais dont la force de la présence a suffit à le faire tomber amoureux. Le film est d’une lenteur qui laisse naître une certaine fascination pour les belles blondes des bords de mer vénusien. Nous découvrons, une planète presque hypnotisante, au rythme des vagues qui s’écrasent sur les rochers et du chant de ces sirènes blondes.
