Exclusive interview between Orson Welles and the author of "War of the Worlds" H.G.Wells
The original (and now infamous Orson Welles staged) radio broadcast from New York's Mercury Theatre,
the entire broadcast recreated in 5.1 sound from original acetates!
The night after a shooting star is seen streaking through the sky from Mars, a cylinder
is discovered on Horsell Common in London. At first, naive locals approach the cylinder armed
just with a white flag - only to be quickly killed by an all-destroying heat-ray, as terrifying
tentacled invaders emerge. Soon the whole of human civilisation is under threat, as powerful
Martians build gigantic killing machines, destroy all in their path with black gas and burning rays,
and feast on the warm blood of trapped, still-living human prey. The forces of the Earth,
however, may prove harder to beat than they at first appear.

Review:
H. G.Wells' chilling novel of a Martian invasion of Earth becomes even more frightening
in this 1952 film adaptation that's widely regarded as one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time.
An Oscar winner for Best Special Effects, The War Of The Worlds delivers eye-popping thrills,
laser-hot action and unrelenting, edge-of-your-seat suspense. No one who has seen the film's
depiction of the swan-shaped Martian machines - ticking and hissing menacingly as they cut
their path of destruction - will ever forget their ominous impact!

A contemporary retelling of H.G. Wells's seminal classic, Steven Spielberg's sci-fi thriller reveals
the extraordinary battle for the future of humankind through the eyes of one American family fighting
to survive it.
Ray Ferrier (Cruise) is a divorced dockworker and somewhat less-than-perfect father. Soon after his
ex-wife (Miranda Otto) and her new husband drop off his teenage son Robbie (Justin Chatwin) and young daughter
Rachel (Dakota Fanning) for a rare weekend visit, a strange and powerful lightning storm touches down. Moments
later, Ray witnesses an extraordinary event that will change all their lives forever. A towering three-legged
war machine emerges from deep beneath the earth; an ordinary day has suddenly become the most extraordinary event
of their lifetimes - the first strike in a cataclysmic alien attack on Earth.
Ray scrambles to get his children away from this merciless new enemy, embarking on a journey that will take
them across the ravaged countryside, where they become caught in the desperate tide of refugees fleeing from an
extraterrestrial army of Tripods. But no matter where they run, there is no safety, no refuge: only Ray's
unconquerable will to protect the ones he loves...
