Viewing Notes
Another 50s sci-fi alien invader flick via Amazon Instant… I love that they have so many of these! Sadly most are not very good but I do enjoy watching them. This one isn’t terrible but it never really pushes the genre with the abduction subplot even though that’s the best thing in this. Those bug-eyed aliens would have freaked me out as a kid. Now a little corny. Peter Graves is cool however.
