THE LOST MISSILE concerns the title projectile, its emergence from the unknown reaches of space, and its doomsday trajectory over the Earth. Traveling at 4000 miles per hour, it eviscerates everything in its flight path! All attempts to intercept and destroy it prove futile.
Dr. David Loring (Robert Loggia) and his fiancee / fellow scientist, Joan Wood (Ellen Parker), have their wedding plans cut short. They must find a way to stop this intergalactic ballistic menace, before megadeath results!
This is one of those wonderful 1950's sci-fi movies that, if it weren't for the magic of stock footage, would be about 15 minutes long! Obviously, it utilizes cold war paranoia and fear of nuclear annihilation as a backdrop for its alleged alien attack. Seeing an impossibly young Loggia as a man racing against time, adds to the melodramatic fun. The story is original, and true to its era...
