Review – Earth vs. The Flying Saucers

This is a minor classic of the alien invasion trend in the sci fi movies of the 1950s. It’s noteworthy mostly as an early example of the talents of Ray Harryhausen. The scenes of the saucers crashing into Washington landmarks are rough around the edges but nonetheless as entertaining as his later, more sophisticated work. Unfortunately, the rest of the movie is a stiff piece of B-movie junk. Mildly amusing
