The Cosmic Man is a 1959 independently made black-and-white science fiction film, produced by Harry Marsh and Robert A. Terry, directed by Herbert S. Greene, that stars John Carradine and Bruce Bennett. The film was distributed by Allied Artists.
After being tracked at 180,000 mph inside the Earth's atmosphere, a white, spherical object lands in the California desert, accompanied by a strange semi-transparent man- shaped humanoid figure. He appears friendly, but is he really?
The film has a score of 0% on Rottentomatoes.com.
"Except for the silly [alien figure] silhouette, most of the special effects are fair. Most of all, the plot suffers from the Cosmic Man's mission. He is deliberately setting the space program back by many years, for reasons not fully explained, through means that many would consider criminal. On a parting note, if their medical science is advanced enough to cure paralysis, then how about devoting some study to eyeglasses?" (Andrew Borntreger)
