Thank you to Arthur Sculco for his selection of "The War of the Worlds" 1953 as well as three other films we recently reviewed "Soylent Green", "2001 A Space Odyssey" and "The Time Machine".
Director Byron Haskin and Producer George Pal adapted the 1898 H.G. Welles novel to create an exciting and timeless science fiction film.
Dr. Clayton Forrester played by Gene Barry is a well-known scientist from Pacific Institute of Science and Technology who finds himself in the middle of a large-scale invasion of Earth by Martians. Dr. Forrester and two colleagues happen to be fishing near the landing site of the first Martian war machine. These three people are quickly engaged in a life or death struggle to save our planet. Also involved are Sylvia van Buren played by Ann Robinson, Les Tremayne as Major General Mann, a large cast and world wide military forces who become involved in this war. The movie is great entertainment for all ages.
