Publisher's Synopsis
The action is shifted from Victorian London to 1950s California in this film version of H.G. Wells' classic sci-fi novel. When Martians try to invade the USA they strike terror into the hearts of the people with their sleek, stylish spaceships and fearful death rays; the military do their best, but their cannons and fighters planes appear useless against such a formidable foe. Is this really the end for Uncle Sam?
