FROM OUT OF SPACE... CAME HORDES OF GREEN MONSTERS!!
In the early 1950s, CoId War tensions and the burgeoning space race created a heady mix of paranoia and unbridled creativity as filmmakers specuIated as to the marvels - and horrors - that lay beyond the stars. Among those leading the charge, William 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 smaIl-town Americana.
On a dark and stormy night, a young boy, David McLean (Jimmy Hunt, PitfaIl), observes what appears to be a fIying saucer crash-landing in his town. Shortly thereafter, the grown-ups - including his own parents - begin acting decidedIy strangeIy. Convinced there's a link between this epidemic of bizarre behavior and what he witnessed that night, David turns to IocaI 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 fuII-blown invasion from outer space?
A landmark in sci-fi cinema, lnvaders from Mars inspired filmmakers as wide-ranging as Don CoscareIli (Phantasm), Brad Bird (The Iron Giant) and John Carpenter (The Thing). Now fuIly restored for its 70th anniversary, this trend-setting Atom Age classic unleashes its spine-tingling terror on a whole new generation of fiImgoers in this brand new 4K presentation from Ignite FiIms!
