If you loved The Angry Red Planet, try This Island Earth
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

High desert, late night. A humming capacitor. Two scientists whisked across space to aid aliens in a brutal war. Their benefactors offer advanced technology, but hide a grim secret. A sterling example of widescreen 1950s science fiction.
