Dodgy Alien #5

Filed in: TV & Movies.

From the infamous Pendragon "Not the Tom Cruise Version" of War of the Worlds comes a Martian:
[I'm a Martian! GRRRR!]

Which looks sadly like some sort of sprouting root vegetable. Despite the spindly appearance of its tentacles, it can actually walk on them, although it prefers to stay within its war machine. Sadly, this is by no means the worst visual effect in this LSD-soaked three-hour torture (viewings have been banned under the Geneva convention), which I may some day demonstrate by posting screen shots of the "good" bits..

I just love the sequence in this movie of the sunny afternoon stroll beneath the starry sky...

This moving picturarolascope is an affront to my novel, to the art of cinetropatology, and to intelligent minds everywhere. I would seek legal address against the makers of this foul effort, but sadly I died in 1946.
