Earth Vs The Flying Saucers. 1956.


Another great example of 1950s sci-fi films with Ray Harryhausen doing the special effects for this little decent film. It has all the elements to make it a sold movie; a good variety of characters, an interesting plot, and a solid script.Hugh Marlowe and Joan Taylor are scientists working on a project that sends satellites into space. Something or someone is shooting them down. A flying saucer lands and that's when the havoc starts.

There may be some plot holes and questions why the big flying saucers don't appear on radar, and some acting that may be a bit wooden, but this is certainly a decent alien invasion movie along with War Of The Worlds as a double feature.
