Docto Who And The Daleks

Frame grab from the 1965 movie Doctor Who And The Daleks starring Peter Cushing. Here is the TARDIS that the new series rebooted to. I quite like it. TECHNICOLOR!

Doctor Who and The Daleks

Doctor Who and The Daleks (1965) was the first of two feature films made in the 1960's. The film features Peter Cushing as Dr Who and is loosely based on the TV episode The Daleks with William Hartnell.

I can't say I am a big fan of this feature film. Some of the sequences are down right silly. It was the 60's, what would you expect. But I have to disagree with some of the comments left on the Hulu site. It wasn't all too painful to watch, and I was able to make it through more than five minutes of it. Cushing's take if the Doctor is very much different than Harnell's and the story has been tweaked just enough from the television version to make is a pretty decent watch for any Doctor Who fan. 

And what on Earth could The Daleks be using lava lamps for? Groovy,  man.
