Aliens come to earth via some meteors. They, in a Wells-ian fashion, land in the middle of a farmyard and scientists come to investigate. Of course, those are no meteorites they're mind controlling aliens bent on taking over the world's population.

Okay, I love the British as much as the next guy. Perhaps I love them even more than the next guy since I have my fair share of English heritage. The British gave us many wonderful things from the Steam Engine to standardized time. One thing they never quite got the knack of was film making, as this film attests to.

The film is absolute rubbish. Honestly, it is worse than The Deadly Bees and The Projected Man combined. It's good to see that the British film industry never matured into a force to compete with Hollywood. Much more of this junk and no one would want to ever go to the cinema again.

On the brighter side of things, the film is shown on DVD with the original Elvira's Movie Macabre bumpers. Cassandra Peterson was at her prime here and looks great and the corny jokes make it even better. Sure it's a ripoff of Vampira but no one can do it like Elvira could.
