INVADERS FROM MARS is considered by many to be the defintive "Cold War" science fiction film. Liberally laced with paranoia of that era, it is not only an exceptional film, but a reflection of the sentiment of the 50's as well.
During a thunderstorm, a boy witnesses the landing of a flying saucer in a nearby field. No one believes the boy's wild tale, and the alien invaders, who remain unseen in their subterranean space ship, begin controlling the town's inhabitants.
Brilliantly designed and directed by William Cameron Menzies -- art director for GONE WITH THE WIND and director of H.G. Wells' classic THINGS TO COME -- INVADERS FROM MARS is a surrealistic nightmare that's impossible to forget!
