Enemy from Space

Description

An exciting story about space creatures who steal the President and try to put a fake robot in his place. The President's daughter and her boyfriend, Colonel Harris, find out about the aliens' plan and team up with a friendly alien girl named Zada to stop the world from being destroyed by nuclear bombs.

A thrilling tale of an alien kidnapper’s plot to replace the President of the United States with a robot duplicate. The President’s daughter and her fiancé, Colonel Harris, discover the alien scheme and with the help of a sympathetic alien girl, Zada, save the world from nuclear disaster.

U.S. President Winston Alexander is kidnapped in the year 2729 by robots from a giant ship cruising through space in search of a planet to colonize. They transform the president into one of them, a machine wrapped in a simulacrum, which gives the machine the semblance of a human. Twenty-four hours later, they return the president to Earth, programmed to push the button that will start the long-dreaded nuclear war. Once all human life has been obliterated, the simulacrums will move in and set up their own society.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
