Gerry Anderson (1929-2012): The Ultimate And Indisputable "Puppet-Master" Of Them All
27 May 2020
"Never fear! Captain Scarlet is here!"

Believe me - "Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons" is a SyFy blast from the past.

Set in the year 2068 - This 1967 puppet show was a Gerry Anderson production (Thunderbirds, Stingray) that certainly didn't skimp on violence and destruction.

This entertaining program of elaborate sets and fantastic aircraft was a bit of an "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" story where the "Mysterons" (from Mars) have come to Earth in order to avenge themselves against man who (as you'll find out) has proven to be an outer space menace.

Even though this enjoyable British production was aimed at the kids - I think that it can be appreciated (for its creativity) by all ages.
