What critics compared Planet of the Vampires to
The astronauts stagger through the storm — fuzzed out by swirling soil — in an image that evokes Mario Bava’s ominously beautiful Planet of the Vampires (a source of inspiration for Alien), and when the storm passes, the 3-D brings out every ripple of Mars’s mountainous terrain.
Even earlier, Mario Bava did it with Planet of the Vampires and he did it with a lot less money.
