My review of the dream release of INVADERS FROM MARS from Ignite Films. This film has finally been given the painstaking restoration many have hoped for. For decades the film was held by an entity who didn’t care for the film properly and kept it from being properly restored malign a release like this something of a pipe dream for every science fiction fan.
Long imitated and never equaled, Invaders from Mars has haunted the dreams of generations of children. The unique qualities that make the film so special are due to the incredible talents of its director the incredible William Cameron Menzies.
This is one of the most important physical media releases ever made. We had all given up hope of this film ever being saved on this way. I have to keep reminding myself that I’m not dreaming!
