Summary: Wait a sec, where are the vampires again? Was it too hard to call this film "Planet of the Ghosts" or something like that? Aw well, can't get everything in life.

History: The folks of planet Aura used to have a physical form, but a cataclysm resulted in their untimely deaths. Leaving behind only their bones, the Aurans entered a spiritual form, and would possess any dead body to get off their dying world.

Notable Kills: These guys barely have to do anything for any killings to occur.

Final Fate: After a couple Aurans possess a ship captain and another, they successfully manage to get off Aura, and decide that Earth would be a good place to settle down.

Powers/Abilities: The Aurans can drive others to madness and violence to fight amongst one another. They can also possess the dead.

Weakness: They actually need a body to possess to get physical work done.

Scariness Factor: 4-Imagine being perfectly normal at one point, but murderously violent the other. That's how the Aurans roll. And there's barely anything you can do about it.

Trivia: -This film is known in Italy as "Terror in Space".

-Like "It! The Terror from Beyond Space" before it, this film is considered to be a major influence on Ridley Scott's "Alien".
