Buckle up and sit back for an Abbott and Costello comedy that's truly out of this world! While helping to load a rocket ship, Lester (Abbott) and Orville (Costello) hit the launch button and blast off. Landing in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, the boys are duped by locals into thinking they are actually on Mars. But when a second accidental launch takes them to the planet Venus, the duo is thrilled to discover the planet is inhabited only by beautiful women in this side-splitting sci-fi film parody.
