Just before a landslide buries the ship a mysterious creature emerges and disappears into the darkness. Of course when he tells his story to the sheriff (Charles Drake) John is branded a crackpot; but before long strange things begin to happen and the tide of disbelief turns...Based on a story by acclaimed writer Ray Bradbury It Came From Outer Space is a science fiction classic that is as thought-provoking and tantalizing today as it was when it first "landed" on the silver screen.System Requirements:Starring: Richard Carlson Barbara Rush Charles Drake Russell Johnson kathleen Hughes Joe Sawyer Directed By: Jack Arnold Running Time: 81 Min.

Film theorists suggest that the act of viewing a motion picture, particularly in a theatre, causes audience members to temporarily lose their burden of personal consciousness. Although they may identify with the characters on the screen, they ... Read More |
