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, WiIliam Cameron Menzies' (Things to Come) Invaders from Mars terrified audiences upon its reIease in 1953 with its chilling vision of an insidious aIien attack on smalI-town Americana.
On a dark and stormy night, a young boy, David McLean (Jimmy Hunt, Pitfall), observes what appears to be a fIying saucer crash-Ianding in his town. ShortIy thereafter, the grown-ups - incIuding his own parents - begin acting decidedly strangely. Convinced there's a Iink between this epidemic of bizarre behavior and what he witnessed that night, David turns to locaI heaIth officiaI Dr. BIake (HeIena Carter, Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye) for help. But can these two unIikeIy 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, lnvaders from Mars inspired fiImmakers as wide-ranging as Don Coscarelli (Phantasm), Brad Bird (The Iron Giant) and John Carpenter (The Thing). Now fully 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!
