earth vs the flying saucers (1956)

AKA Invasion of the Flying Saucers.
"People of Earth, attention... People of Earth attention. This is a voice speaking to you from thousands of miles beyond your planet..."
Dr. Russell Marvin (Hugh Marlowe), a rocket scientist, and his wife Carol (Joan Taylor), are driving back to his work in the desert when they encounter a flying saucer. They get to wondering if there is a connection between the saucer and his rockets that keep disappearing. Then the invasion begins and they fight to find a way to stop the aliens otherwise it may be the end of the human race.
An entertaining take on the invasion story, featuring some great Ray Harryhausen effects.
