Classic Sci Fi The Day Mars Invaded Earth 1963 QT@3RIP

[@MegaWam1]

This was filmed at the Greyson's Mansion in Beverly Hills. I am a member. I did not know that the swimming pool was that deep. One could seriously be injured falling in there. Now I understand why they filled it in. This mansion has a bowling alley and a small concert room. I know every inch of this place and was amazed to see it in this old space movie. They made a ton of movies on this property.

[@hiridavidfeign]

The inside and outside are so distinctive, it's easy to spot the mansion in movies. You're right, it's been in a ton of them.

[@edwardroche2480]

It would be a horrible place to live with the bills and the uptake and the cleaning. Is it for sale.

This was a really good movie. I love those old sci-fi thrillers from the 1950s, 60s and 70s.

I love classic movies especially this one, it's different, not just a typical alien from Mars movie, very chilling.

Great movie. Have seen it more than once and still enjoy it. Can never understand why people who feel threatened always want to leave in the morning.

I haven’t seen this movie in several years so thanks for posting it. I love all these black and white films especially the sci-fi .

[@charleswheeler3395]

I was 14 years old when this movie came out, in those days wasn't allowed to see some of these movies because, are you ready, they were scary. Today's movies like this aren't just scary but gory many times over. This is a first time see for me thank you for bringing my childhood back. BTW I am now 70..

[@ElectricSmurf]

I’m late to the party but your comment reminded me of my youth. Back then the film certification system, as you’re probably aware, called scary or adult themed movies “X Rated”. I can still remember how even Frankenstein and Werewolf movies were X Rated and we weren’t allowed to watch them lol

back in the early 60's there was a local station who had a show at 4pm week days called the bigshow.. All they had were these old scifi movies. I seldom missed one.. I really enjoy watching these old movies, thanks for posting them.. These movies are so much better than some of the junk hollywood puts out nowdays

That's true, nothing but garbage has been made for a long time. Movies today have no soul to them.

[@Illusions2020]

2nd the reply. Hollywood only ever now cranks out nothing but garbage an pure junk. They sorely need re-educated by reviewing the old shows like these but they are too blind to see it

My city had one at about 1PM on Sat. in the 60s; it was called the "Unknown"....."20,000,000 Miles to Earth", "Them" "The Beginning of the End" et al. It was very fun/scary. LOL...They seem kinda hokey now but they were spooky then.

I call this "relaxing" Sci Fi and it has made my playlist. I love the year and music. Just great all around and I watch it often.

These early movies are really a pleasure to watch. thanks for providing it

[@enniscorthylad]

I am a life-long fan of the much under-rated, Marie Windsor. She lent class to numerous films and should have been a great star. She particularly showed her acting talent in a number of film noir movies and my favourite is her role in Narrow Margin.

[@randyacuna3248]

Micheal Sean O'Dubhghaill totally agree, the narrow margin is her best role plus it is very well done in a closticphobic setting.

[@erikriza7165]

they should never separate. That is one of the first things you need to remember if you are in a horror movie. dont go off by yourself. everyone stay together

[@kisserofdogs3218]

That's correct. That's why I always say horror/thriller type movies like always have the dumbest actors and actresses in them. They always go looking for whatever went bump in the night and they go alone and they always fall when trying to run away. Dumb, dumb, dumb. Haha!!

[@edwardmalc1473]

@@kisserofdogs3218 Pam, You know that it's not the actors, it's the characters they play. The script dictates their actions. It is the stupid actions that characters do, to ramp up the tension that irritates us & force us to rant or scream at the screen. I hate it when I watch a crime thriller, zombie or vampire movie and characters split up, use a weapon to kill someone; then put it down only to need a weapon again, shortly after. Or when horror lore informs us to shoot zombies in the head, vampires in the heart (with silver bullets or wooden stakes). But the characters don't do that, they just stand & gape or shoot and miss, or whatever. You know what I mean! It's fun really. Still annoying though..... Given that this is pre-cgi & relatively new in space invader terms it is quite good. The locations are amazing, so spatial. The rover was very 50's in design. I wonder what all the antennae were supposed to do? Maybe it was male.........

[@kisserofdogs3218]

@@edwardmalc1473 Haha, yes, I know. That was just my weird humor talking because those in the movie always do things real people probably wouldn't do so I just blame it on dumb actors. LOL

[@tommissouri4871]

Also, don't be the token black guy, gay guy, or silly screaming girl (usually scantily clad). They are almost always among the first to go. And when the bad thing enters the room, standing and screaming is not really the best defense.

I've always enjoyed this one, low-key and pleasantly science-y in its B-movie way. Bleak ending too, pretty rare for this era. The popular filming location - Greystone Park & Mansion in Beverly Hills - is well used here, and brought me back to the old days of early 1960s Southern California. Recommended.

I was so shocked when there was no happy ending for any of them! That didn't happen to often in the old days. Back in the day we had to win at the end of the movie.

[@rhwinner]

This movie is just so creepy. There is nothing particularly 'unworldly' or 'Martian' about what they are experiencing. It's more like a haunting or a reality shifting. Reminds me of another film from the same era, _The Haunting._ Like that film, there is a psychologization of the horror - it all seems to be taking place within the mind of each character rather than an external reality, and you are never quite sure where the menace resides - within or without. I found it to be very effective. Also, the fact that they filmed it at Greystone Mansion a known haunted house. I don't know if the producers did this to extract better performances, or it just was a practical consideration, but it just adds to the overall creepiness and uncanniness....
