An American airbase crew land on the Moon, being steered to a certain spot by Marie Windsor; who is being telepathically dominated by the leader of the cat women (Carol Brewster). The cat women inhabit caves between the dark and light sides of the Moon, which are also occupied by giant spiders. After having killed several of the horned spiders, the crew discovers the cat women’s lair. The cat women, dressed in black leotards, try to use their telepathic powers to take over the rocket ship and set in motion a planned conquest of Earth.
A very campy B-movie Sci-Fi flick.
