FROM OUT OF SPACE... CAME HORDES OF GREEN MONSTERS!!
ln the early 1950s, Cold War tensions and the burgeoning space race created a heady mix of paranoia and unbridled creativity as filmmakers speculated as to the marvels - and horrors - that lay beyond the stars. Among those leading the charge, WilIiam Cameron Menzies' (Things to Come) lnvaders from Mars terrified audiences upon its release in 1953 with its chiIIing vision of an insidious alien attack on smalI-town Americana.
On a dark and stormy night, a young boy, David McLean (Jimmy Hunt, PitfaII), observes what appears to be a flying saucer crash-Ianding in his town. ShortIy thereafter, the grown-ups - incIuding his own parents - begin acting decidedly strangely. Convinced there's a link between this epidemic of bizarre behavior and what he witnessed that night, David turns to Iocal health official Dr. Blake (Helena Carter, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye) for heIp. But can these two unlikely heroes, together with famed astronomer Dr. Kelston (Arthur Franz, The Caine Mutiny), withstand the might of a full-bIown invasion from outer space?
A landmark in sci-fi cinema, Invaders from Mars inspired fiImmakers as wide-ranging as Don Coscarelli (Phantasm), Brad Bird (The lron Giant) and John Carpenter (The Thing). Now fulIy restored for its 70th anniversary, this trend-setting Atom Age classic unleashes its spine-tingling terror on a whole new generation of filmgoers in this brand new 4K presentation from Ignite FiIms!
