As a kid growing up in 50's I lived on these low budget Sci fi movies. When the Japanese ones started hitting the theaters, ( the mysterians, rodan ) I was in heaven. They terrified me but I couldn't get enough of them. The perfect audience. Anyway, I first saw this on TV, when I was maybe 6 or 7 yrs old.I didn't sleep for a week. I lived near a big lot with sand and all I could imagine was martians coming up thru the sand. A 6 or 7 yr old wasn't looking for a message just to be scared out of his wits on a warm summer night. Our parents could worry about communism, nuclear war and the like. I and my friends scanned the skies for Invaders from Mars.
