Aroview: A pair of notable cheese-fests from the "planet of the low-budget":

Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet (1965) Directed by Curtis Harrington - A crazy melange of rayguns, plastic spaceships and cheap sets intersect when a team of astronauts and their robot land on the surface of Venus in the year 2000. Monsters await them...

Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women (1968) Directed (in part) by Peter Bogdanovich - In this quasi-sequel Mamie Van Doren is the leader of some cave-girls on Venus who tangle with visiting earthlings. Much of the footage derives from a Russian film 'Planeta Burg' which was respliced into this odd jumble.
