In this, he convincingly plays one of the nuclear scientists (A-Men) at the OSI, who investigate atomic phenomena. King Donovan (Invasion of the Body Snatchers), an actor I particularly like, plays his side-kick. The story concerns a maverick scientist who has inadvertently created a radioactive isotope (not a monster as such), which is gorging on the earth's energy and will soon throw the planet out of orbit. So the race is on to neutralise it, and Carlson and his colleagues use every means at their disposal to achieve this, including consulting the M.A.N.I.A.C. computer (cue shots of the real thing at Los Alamos) and using a giant, nightmarish 'Deltatron'. The spectacular Deltatron scenes include footage from a 1934 German film, but I won't spoil things by saying any more about that. This movie is apparently the first in a trilogy of Ivan Tors productions about the OSI, the others being 'Riders to The Stars' and 'Gog'.It's very dated, of course, and I don't know whether all the science is authentic, but it's absorbing stuff, and I loved the comedic touch in the early part of the movie, a scene of magnetic mayhem in an electrical store, with clocks, washing machines and vacuum cleaners taking on a life of their own. On a trivial note, look out for a very young Strother Martin as an airline pilot. My husband really enjoyed the science (real and speculative), but I found it a bit 'talkie' to begin with and would have quite liked a more conventional, fleshy monster, rather than a metaphorical one. As for the DVD itself, the print and sound quality are good, and, although it's a Spanish product, it's easy to play in English without the Spanish subtitles. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by S***L on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 September 2016* i love these old sci fi films..so another one fo my collection.great price..fast delivery. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Magnetic Monster, a very good story. *by B***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 March 2014* I saw this film in the cinema when it was first issued and I quite enjoyed it, hence my desire to see it again. Having watched the DVD I must confess to a little disappointment in that, I believe some 'cutting' has taken place. However, it remains a very good story and I am pleased that I was able to buy it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/58775679-the-magnetic-monster-1953-official-region-free-pal-release-plays](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/58775679-the-magnetic-monster-1953-official-region-free-pal-release-plays) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
