Nice effects though.

If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

An absolutely insipid remake of "Invasion of the Saucer Men", this was rushed into broadcast for an early TV movie, and is just plain absurd. The basic elements of its source material is there, but what ends up being filmed is a combination of tedious talk, wretched amateurish acting, ridiculously silly looking space creatures, and basically 80 minutes of my life I had to sacrifice just to get a review. American International films veteran John Ashley is the only Hollywood name, forgotten outside of his cult following. It takes forever for the idiotic monsters to appear and they seem as threatening as Gumby or Tinky Winky. The young heroine has a hideous hairstyle that Liza Minnelli might have used as a fright wig when she had similarly long hair in the mid 60's. Comic relief by awful Abbott and Costello imitators is downright eye rolling. The cleverness of the campy original is sadly absent, and there are other elements that seem ripped off from "It Conquered the World". This one is only for the desperate, a category of film viewer I must include myself in now for forcing myself to endure.

This is a remake of "Invasion Of The Saucer Men" (1957) While the original attempted to be serious, this version goes for a more comical attempt. It fails at this, instead of funny it can get boring at times by actors that over act being stupid and the writing gives them nothing in the way of comical. The special effect are very low budget and it appears to have been just kicked out without getting the "shots" that are done right. I think the director yelled "Print" way to fast on this one.If you choose between the two movies go with the 1957 original, it has all the camp and magic that you get from old 50s Si Fi.This version can be difficult to watch if you have seen the original first. If not, then it can be enjoyable if you don't expect too much.

I've only seen the MST3K version,but never by itself.This is a remake of INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN,which is a lot better and even stars a young Frank Gorshin.If you notice that towards the end that some of the eye creatures don't have all of their costume on.Just the headpiece and that's it.Guess they didn't have the budget to make more,but for goodness sake,you can see it plain as day or night,if you're referring to this movie.I don't think the director has ever made a good movie and I've seen a couple more he did,but that's it.John Ashley looks embarrassed being in this movie and I don't blame him.He probably did it for the money,if it was that much anyway.See it for the mistakes or just watch the MST3K version instead.Either way,you're in for a treat! Bad movie? You bet!

Okay, here we go again. Another huge loser from Larry Buchanan. First of all, I doubt for one minute that the army would allow their expensive equipment to be used the way they did. Just to get their rocks off. Secondly, the old man who thinks he owns the whole freakin' mountain. The creatures themselves was kind of cool. But if all can afford is one eye creature, then show only one eye creature. Keep the others behind the bushes like they were suppose to stay. The crawling hand was just awful, you can see the rest of the arm in the light. I was thinking Larry Buchanan did it again by ripping off an older movie INVASION OF THE SAUCER MEN, but I did some research and he just based it on the same book THE COSMIC FRAMED which would explain all the similarities. But that doesn't explain the costume goofs, the character issues and the plan cheapness of the flick. I give THE EYE CREATURES....A HALF A STAR.
