Planeta Bur (Russian: Планета бурь) is a 1962 Sovcolor Soviet science fiction adventure film scripted by Alexander Kazantsev from his novel, and co-scripted and directed by Pavel Klushantsev.

Three Soviet spaceships, Sirius, Vega, and Capella, are on their way from Lunar Station 7 for the first human landing on Venus and the first exploration of the planet.

So Ivan and Allan, with their large robot assistant "John" (now partly disassembled for flight), descend toward Venus in Vega's glider spacecraft, leaving Masha in orbit to monitor communications between the ships and ground crews.

While wandering around some boulders, Aloysha is suddenly attacked and dragged off toward the mouth of a large carnivorous plant, but he is quickly rescued by Ilya and Roman.

During their journey, they hear what sounds like a distant eerie voice of a woman, and then soon encounter a gigantic, sedate brontosaur-like creature, from which one of the men quickly takes a blood sample from its tail.

Meanwhile, after completely assembling robot John, Ivan and Allan are suddenly attacked in the swamp by several human-size tyrannosaur-like beasts, some of which they kill with handguns.

After safely returning to Sirius, they discover a recorded, desperate message from Masha saying that she is going to defy her orders from Lunar Station 7 and land on Venus to search for them.

During this, Alyosha discovers that his strange rock has crumbled apart to reveal a small sculpture of a beautiful woman's face, proving there is human life on Venus.

This second Americanized version is essentially the same as Corman's first, but retold with a parallel viewpoint of the telepathic Venusian women, whose god (a large pterosaur-like flying creature) is killed by the Earth men, and includes an ending with an ironic twist: The Venusian women find a new god to worship, the now eroded and non-functional robot John.

In a retrospective on Soviet science fiction film, British director Alex Cox remarked that "in its final minutes, Planet of Storms takes an extraordinary turn.
