Cat-Women of the Moon

Cat-Women of the Moon is a 1953 American Independent black-and-white three-dimensional science-fiction film, produced by Jack Rabin and Al Zimbalist, directed by Arthur Hilton, that stars Sonny Tufts, Victor Jory, and Marie Windsor.

Travelling in a spaceship equipped with wooden tables and chairs, a scientific expedition to the Moon encounters a race of cat-women, the last survivors of a two-million-year-old lunar civilization.

Residing deep within a Moon cavern, the cat-women have managed to maintain not only the remnants of a breathable atmosphere and Earth-like gravity, but also a pair of gigantic Moon-spiders.

Through the use of their telepathic abilities, the cat-women have been subliminally controlling Helen Salinger, the mission navigator and only female member of the Earth expedition.

I like 'em stupid"), the gun-wielding Kip sits alone, unable to intervene, while the cat-women successfully manipulate the weak points of expedition commander Laird and the other men.

Cat-Women of the Moon inspired several songs on Shakespears Sister's 1992 album Hormonally Yours, among them their UK number-one hit "Stay".
