VHS "The War of the Worlds" 1952 original! - Gene Barry & Ann Robinson

The special effects found in this film are ahead of their time - comparable to what you might see today with all the computer generated stuff! A timeless film with a moral twist at the end.

The box sleeve is near-mint, showing just light edge wear. No markings or separations.

H.G. Wells' 1901 novel of the invasion of the Earth by Martians is brought to the screen with dazzling special effects.

"...George Pal's primitive but Oscar winning special effects still look 'cool' in THE WAR OF THE WORLDS..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (05/07/1999)

"Paramount's Technicolor was the era's most vibrant, and Gordon Jennings' now-primitive Oscar-winning effects still look cool in this George Pal production."
USA Today - Mike Clark (06/28/2005)

"Watching the march of the Martian machines across our country, you're taken in not by the dazzling reality of the visual tricks but by their resourcefulness and charming artificiality."
