Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: One of countless pieces of '50s pulp to come out of a social fabric defined equally by interest in the unknown and mounting Cold War paranoia.
Customer Reviews
This is what comes to mind when you think alien invasion!
Literally, flying saucers shooting rays at monuments and blowing s(^t up! What more do you want? Oh, and this film was done by Ray Harryhausen! 'nuff said. By the way, did you know that those aliens in this film weren't supposed to be in there? As it turns out, the real aliens were supposed to be worm people!
Excellent!! I've been waiting to see this particular movie show up on iTunes!
This is one of the great ones in the Sci-Fi genre from the 50's! For its' day it had great special effects (Ray Harrihausen...could you ask for better?). A classic storyline ("Mars Attacks!" was basically a spoof on this movie), and to top it off they colorized it; who could ask for more?
Classic
easily one of my favorite sci fi/ alien invasion movies of all time! the movie looks GREAT in color, and well worth your 15 dollars!
