Invaders From Mars
Known for scaring the socks of countless Baby Boomers during the 1950s, Invaders From Mars tells the story of starstruck David MacLean, the young sole witness of aliens noisily landing in his backyard in the wee hours of the morning. His father goes to investigate but is dragged beneath the sand, only to reemerge as a stiff, cold-hearted version of his father he's never met. As more and more friends and family members are changing, David tries to get help, but it's too impossible to believe! With a little help from a sympathetic doctor, a brilliant scientist, and the US army, he confronts the alien, but is it enough to survive and save his parents? Join Robin, Lisa, and their dad, Clark, as we discuss this nearly-forgotten gem.
