Episode: 35) Out of the World Pt. II - Invaders from Mars (1953)
Description: On this out-of-this-world episode, we’re talking proto-sci-fi classic Invaders from Mars. This is a film full of contradictions: a B movie by literally the world’s first production designer and de-facto director of Gone with the Wind; wildly original while relying heavily on stock footage; and a Cold War era fable about Americans coming together to defeat a foreign enemy that ends by implying they accomplished nothing. Kind of like this podcast, if you think about it.Â
