On this day in 1953, 20th CENTURY FOX released the (still) classic INVADERS FROM MARS. Directed by WILLIAM CAMERON MENZIES and starring LEIF ERICKSON, HILLARY BROOKE and JIMMY HUNT this sci-fi thriller is about as good as it gets. And while the TIM BURTON film of the same name is fun, it has NOTHING to do with this great 50’s delight.
