All of the women on the planet Mars have died in an atomic war, except for Martian Princess Marcuzan (Marilyn Hanold). Marcuzan and her right hand man, Dr. Nadir (Lou Cutell), decide they will travel to Earth and steal all of the women on the planet in order to continue the Martian race. The Martians shoot down a space capsule manned by the android Colonel Frank Saunders (Robert Reilly), causing it to crash in Puerto Rico. Frankenstein's electronic brain and the left half of his face are damaged after encountering a trigger-happy Martian and his ray gun. Frank, now "Frankenstein", described by his creator as an "astro-robot without a control system" proceeds to terrorize the island. A subplot involves the martians abducting bikini clad women...

Martian invaders Princess Marcuzan (Marilyn Hanold, The Brain That Wouldn't Die) and Doctor Nadir (Lou Cutell, ***-Wee's Big Adventure) prepare an Earth invasion as NASA sends a rocket to Mars manned by humanoid android Colonel Frank Saunders. Mistaking the craft for a warhead, the aliens send the android back to Earth in a fiery explosion. With half his face burnt off and a damaged computer brain, Frank embarks on a murderous rampage throughout Puerto Rico.
The aliens invade beaches and pool parties, making off with full-figured bikini babes as breeding stock for their dying planet. Meanwhile, Frank's creator Adam Steele (James Karen, Superman Returns, The Return of the Living Dead), and his assistant race to stop Frank's rampage and halt the girls' abduction.
With Bruce Glover (Diamonds Are Forever) in a dual role as an alien invader and the Space Monster, along with a climactic raygun-firing superhumanoid battle between Frank and the beast, Frankenstein Meets The Space Monster clocks in as a Saturday matinee classic. It rivals Plan 9 From Outer Space for sheer head-turning amazement.

I cannot believe that MST3K (both old and new versions) and Rifftrax has not yet riffed this movie. If there ever was a film daring anyone to riff it, this is that film. Rifftrax, if you don't riff this film, I bet that the new MST3K personnel are going to do it in the very near future. This movie does all of your work for you, all you have to do is make some occasional rude disgusting sounds in the background, you don't even have to say anything and the movie's bad dialog, terrible acting, goofy script, awful direction will do all of your riffing work for you. In other words, the laffs are already built-in, just show the film and the Haw Haws are guaranteed to follow.

Let's not forget that the alien baddies use HASBRO AIR GUNS! Anyone remember these? They look like gigantic blow dryers and all they do is shoot out a burst of air!

James Karen, from Return of The Living Dead, is in it.
Within the first 5 minutes (especially once you see the car-insides, with the horizontal blinds, and 4 people squished together), you already have to laugh. This is like if Ed Wood had an understudy, and that understudy was called into action, to direct the whole thing in one sitting, with no notice.
