One of countless pieces of '50s pulp to come out of a social fabric defined equally by interest in the unknown and mounting Cold War paranoia.

While the special effects may seem absurd when compared to all the CG images that inhabit most of today's blockbusters, this 1956 piece still focuses on a coherent storyline.

[The finest] of these formula-driven alien invasion movies... and not only because its flying saucers are pretty much the best ever.
