This eerie 1953 sci-fi classic scores a gorgeous new home video release from Ignite Films.
The dreamlike"Invaders From Mars" starred Jimmy Hunt as David MacLean, a young child who witnesses a flying saucer landing behind his family home and the mind-controlling influence these alien creatures inflict upon his parents and local townsfolk. Told via a unique child's point-of-view and employing stylized sets and extreme camera angles, the movie reflected the country's growing anxieties of Cold War paranoia and was one of the first sci-fi films shot in full blazing color.
"'Invaders' was an odd duck given its printmaking technique of"SuperCINEcolor," MacQueen tells Space.com."The previous print owner, Richard Rosenfeld, had loaned intermediate materials to a licensee that were never returned. The non-standard original camera negative was discovered in a Los Angeles stock library, so there was an opportunity to properly restore the film.
"Scenes burned into my memory are the close-up of 'Bad Mother' Hillary Brooke, dressed all in black with one eyebrow darting up while she offers false comfort to her son; the surrogate 'Good Mother' figure, Helena Carter, sleeping peacefully and resting her hand on her forehead to protect her brain as the Martian probe weaves toward her neck; and the sandpits that pull the humans into their vortices to the accompaniment of a dissonant acapella choir.
