Synopsis for "Spawn of Venus"

1/4

Space explorers find that Venus does not rotate on its axis so there is a four hundred mile strip between the two sterile halves of the planet that contains lush tropics. They land there but three of their number of devoured by native life forms so they depart in horror from what they consider a planet of evil. Before they blast off, a flower bud catches the eye of one of the men and he finds it beautiful so he brings it with him. On Earth, when the flower blooms it releases a blob-like creature identical to the one that killed two of their number on Venus. The people are in a panic because nothing seems to kill it so the military attempts to use an atom bomb on it. All they succeed in doing is multiplying the creature into countless tiny quivering hungry blobs.
