Visible crew/equipment: Paul Mantee's helmet reflects two stage lights often when he is supposedly outside.
Robinson Crusoe On Mars (1964)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Byron Haskin
Starring: Adam West, Paul Mantee, The Woolly Monkey, Victor Lundin
Genres: Sci-fi
Continuity mistake: While avoiding the glowing meteoroid, they decide to fire their jets to push them into a higher orbit. In a couple of scenes they go up but a third one has them going back down.
Draper: Friday, you're gonna learn English if I have to sit on your chest for two months.
Trivia: The alien ships look almost like the Martian ships from the movie War of the Worlds minus the wires. However, they were neat to watch. Byron Haskin directed both Wars of the Worlds and Robinson Crusoe On Mars; thus, that is why they have the same spaceships.
Question: For someone stranded on Mars for several months, Mantee's hair and sideburns seem remarkably well-groomed, even, and trimmed! (He could have cut his hair with his knife, but wouldn't it have looked more shaggy and uneven than it does)?
