Plan Nine...Remake?!? Really?
Why?
Planet of the Vampires
A classic movie that you'll recognize from more modern movies that have been inspired enough to rip it off pay it homage without crediting it. Plus it features the best Italian leather space suits ever.
Return of the C-57D
Forbidden Planet. Continued in the Forbidden Planet (Finally) post.
Shambleau
C. L. Moore's classic story.
Slan
A man, a mutant, a mutant-man in natty pants who'll either save the world or destroy it because he's different.

The Time Travelers (1964)

The Time Tunnel: An Irwin Allen Megadungeon of Unspeakable Horrors
What lurks beneath the burning sands of some undisclosed desert--and why does this set-up look so much like Altair 4? Has the U.S. Government discovered a long lost Krell Complex on Earth? And why the hell are koalas scary?
Ultimate Warrior: Yul Brynner, Fighting Man
It isn't the most exciting movie, but it does present a post-apocalyptic setting that doesn't have nukes, radiation or mutants. Just the survivors of a wickedly infectious plague. And Yul Brynner.
