Invaders from Mars (1953)
Country: US
Technical: col 82m
Director: William Cameron Menzies
Cast: Helena Carter, Arthur Franz
Synopsis:
A young boy is witness to an invasion by Martians, but no one believes him.
Review:
Fast-moving, vividly coloured and designed Sci-Fi, with some marvellously dated science. It introduced the 'body-snatching' motif that was to become such a popular metaphor for the red menace in the Fifties.
