The Movie

Synopsis

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, often referred to as simply Captain Scarlet, is a science-fiction television series produced by the Century 21 Productions Television company of Sylvia and Gerry Anderson and Lew Grade and first shown in Britain (originally on ATV Midlands, but later the whole of the UK) between September 1967 and May 1968. It used puppetry (Supermarionation) and scale-model special effects.

The series is one of several popular science-fiction TV adventure series the Andersons produced in the 1960s, beginning with Supercar and followed by Fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, Joe 90, and the little-seen The Secret Service. Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons was the first series made after the international success of Thunderbirds in 1964-66.

The rights to the show belong to ITC Entertainment, Lew Grade's production company, which co-produced all the Anderson shows from Thunderbirds onwards. In 1980, ITC combined several episodes of the original show to make two compilation movies, entitled Captain Scarlet vs. the Mysterons and Revenge of the Mysterons from Mars. [1]
