1 00:00:07,466 --> 00:00:11,166 In WWI, for the first time ever, - 2 00:00:11,386 --> 00:00:16,511 - nations combined to fight nations, using the crude weapons of the day. 3 00:00:16,725 --> 00:00:23,439 WWII involved every continent. Science provided new tools of war. 4 00:00:23,649 --> 00:00:27,986 These reached an unparalleled peak in their capacity for destruction. 5 00:00:27,986 --> 00:00:31,531 Now, fraught with the terrible weapons of super-science, - 6 00:00:31,531 --> 00:00:35,695 - menacing every creature on Earth, comes... 7 00:01:42,728 --> 00:01:45,812 No one would have believed- 8 00:01:46,023 --> 00:01:51,812 - human affairs were being closely watched by a greater intelligence. 9 00:01:52,029 --> 00:01:56,655 Yet, across the gulf of space on the planet Mars, - 10 00:01:56,867 --> 00:02:02,786 - intellects vast and unsympathetic regarded our Earth enviously, - 11 00:02:02,998 --> 00:02:07,494 - slowly and surely drawing their plans against us. 12 00:02:07,711 --> 00:02:11,459 Mars is more than 140 million miles from the sun. 13 00:02:11,673 --> 00:02:15,803 For centuries it has been in the last stages of exhaustion. 14 00:02:16,011 --> 00:02:21,681 At night, temperatures drop far below zero, even at its equator. 15 00:02:21,892 --> 00:02:27,022 The inhabitants of this dying planet looked across space with instruments- 16 00:02:27,022 --> 00:02:29,682 - of which we have scarcely dreamed, - 17 00:02:29,858 --> 00:02:33,986 - searching for another world to which they could migrate. 18 00:02:34,196 --> 00:02:37,481 They could not go to Pluto, - 19 00:02:37,699 --> 00:02:43,239 - so cold that its atmosphere lies frozen on its surface. 20 00:02:43,455 --> 00:02:49,659 They couldn't use Neptune or Uranus, twin worlds in eternal night, - 21 00:02:49,878 --> 00:02:55,714 - both surrounded by an atmosphere of methane gas and ammonia vapour. 22 00:02:56,718 --> 00:03:03,848 They considered Saturn, attractive with its moons and rings, - 23 00:03:04,059 --> 00:03:09,563 - but its temperature is close to 270 degrees below zero, - 24 00:03:09,773 --> 00:03:14,269 - and ice lies 15,000 miles deep on its surface. 25 00:03:14,486 --> 00:03:19,825 Their nearest world was Jupiter, with giant cliffs of lava and ice, - 26 00:03:20,033 --> 00:03:22,655 - with hydrogen flaming at the tops. 27 00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:28,374 The atmosphere is awful. Thousands of pounds to the square inch. 28 00:03:28,583 --> 00:03:33,625 They couldn't go there, nor to Mercury, nearest planet to the sun. 29 00:03:33,839 --> 00:03:40,340 It has no air. The temperature at its equator is that of molten lead. 30 00:03:40,554 --> 00:03:46,343 Of all the worlds the life forms on Mars could see and study, - 31 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:52,894 - only our own Earth was green with vegetation, bright with water, - 32 00:03:53,108 --> 00:03:58,529 - and possessed a cloudy atmosphere eloquent of fertility. 33 00:03:58,739 --> 00:04:03,702 It did not occur to mankind that a swift fate might be hanging over us. 34 00:04:03,702 --> 00:04:09,954 Or that from the blackness of outer space we were being scrutinized. 35 00:04:10,167 --> 00:04:15,137 Till the time we drew close to Mars' orbit, during a pleasant summer... 36 00:04:29,394 --> 00:04:33,143 - Is that a fireball or something? - Boy, that's big. 37 00:04:38,737 --> 00:04:44,075 - I wonder where it hit? - Probably halfway to Pomona. 38 00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:47,119 I'm gonna see. Who's coming? 39 00:04:47,329 --> 00:04:49,820 This is Pine Summit. I got a smoke. 40 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:54,951 - 160/30. - Azimuth: 160 degrees, 30 minutes. 41 00:04:56,046 --> 00:05:00,589 Big? I bet it's as big as anything that ever lit in California. 42 00:05:00,801 --> 00:05:05,141 Better get something over there. It's started a blaze already. 43 00:05:44,135 --> 00:05:47,302 Number Three to D.O. 44 00:05:47,514 --> 00:05:52,639 - D.O. to Number Three, come in. - We're getting this under control. 45 00:05:52,852 --> 00:05:57,847 Okay, send the tanker in, but you stand by until that thing cools off. 46 00:05:58,066 --> 00:06:03,985 - Someone ought to check on it. - There's scientists fishing nearby. 47 00:06:04,197 --> 00:06:08,785 They probably saw it come down. I'll tell them. What's it look like? 48 00:06:08,785 --> 00:06:14,206 It's too hot to get near enough for a good look, but it's enormous. 49 00:06:22,757 --> 00:06:28,178 I got a message for you. You're the guys from Pacific Tech, ain't you? 50 00:06:29,973 --> 00:06:33,342 - Looks like the fishing was good. - Have some? 51 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:36,181 Well, I might just do that. 52 00:06:38,189 --> 00:06:40,562 It's about that meteor. 53 00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:43,851 They say it's a whopper. 54 00:06:46,281 --> 00:06:50,971 They phoned us up on the summit. I thought you might be interested. 55 00:06:51,077 --> 00:06:56,035 - About 10 miles from here. - It didn't come down like a meteor. 56 00:06:56,249 --> 00:06:59,665 That's right. It came down in spurts. 57 00:07:01,129 --> 00:07:04,296 You fellows figure it out. You're scientists. 58 00:07:04,507 --> 00:07:07,212 It's big as a house and red-hot. 59 00:07:08,094 --> 00:07:11,932 - I'll loan you car and take a look. - We ought to get back. 60 00:07:11,932 --> 00:07:16,728 - I'll fly Bilder back down in your plane. - Okay, the insurance is paid up. 61 00:07:16,728 --> 00:07:20,014 - Light? - No, I'll smoke it later. 62 00:07:35,330 --> 00:07:39,280 Did you watch it come down? I saw it from my window. 63 00:07:41,711 --> 00:07:44,333 Harold, look here a minute. 64 00:07:44,547 --> 00:07:48,296 Step over a little. Smile. 65 00:07:48,510 --> 00:07:51,879 It must have skidded along the gully. 66 00:07:52,097 --> 00:07:55,929 Then the loose earth shook down over it. 67 00:07:56,142 --> 00:07:59,922 - I guess most of it's buried. - That's 12 feet thick. 68 00:08:00,105 --> 00:08:05,005 They run heavy. They won't be able to haul this one away to no museum. 69 00:08:05,735 --> 00:08:08,855 A good attraction for Sunday drivers. 70 00:08:09,072 --> 00:08:13,410 Better than a lion farm or snake pit. We won't have to feed it. 71 00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:17,914 - We can sell tamales and hot dogs. - Ice cream, cold drinks, souvenirs. 72 00:08:17,914 --> 00:08:22,814 - We should put up picnic tables. - Then they'd bring their own lunch. 73 00:08:24,295 --> 00:08:28,673 - Gonna dig for gold, Buck? - You think you're kidding? 74 00:08:28,883 --> 00:08:33,426 It'll be like having a gold mine in your own back yard. 75 00:08:33,638 --> 00:08:36,176 I'm gonna get a closer look at it. 76 00:08:50,530 --> 00:08:54,824 - That's it over there. - It's still pretty darned hot. 77 00:08:56,870 --> 00:08:59,657 - Be careful, Buck. - Watch it. 78 00:09:05,295 --> 00:09:09,007 - Did you see it come down? - Yes, I was fishing in the hills. 79 00:09:09,007 --> 00:09:14,250 - That's a lot of tackle. - The others flew back in my plane. 80 00:09:15,513 --> 00:09:18,218 Why didn't it make a bigger crater? 81 00:09:18,433 --> 00:09:23,593 It hit sideways and skidded in. That's what I think. 82 00:09:23,813 --> 00:09:27,431 A scientist's coming, he'll tell us. 83 00:09:27,650 --> 00:09:32,155 - Ever hear of Clayton Forrester? - What's that fellow trying to do? 84 00:09:32,155 --> 00:09:37,066 He's top man in astro and nuclear physics. He knows all about meteors. 85 00:09:37,285 --> 00:09:43,406 - You seem to know all about him. - I did a thesis on modern scientists. 86 00:09:43,625 --> 00:09:47,788 - Did it do you any good? - Sure, I got my degree. 87 00:09:49,130 --> 00:09:53,260 - Say, do you have a match? - No, I'm sorry. I don't smoke. 88 00:09:53,468 --> 00:09:59,838 They had Forrester on the cover of Time. You have to rate to get that. 89 00:10:00,058 --> 00:10:03,557 - He isn't that good. - You don't even know him! 90 00:10:03,770 --> 00:10:07,684 - I do know him, slightly. - What's he like? 91 00:10:07,899 --> 00:10:10,141 Well, he's like... 92 00:10:14,614 --> 00:10:21,495 You don't look like yourself in that get-up, but I'm happy to meet you. 93 00:10:21,704 --> 00:10:25,124 Sylvia Van Buren. I teach library science at USC. 94 00:10:25,124 --> 00:10:30,997 - I didn't know how to stop you. - You didn't wear glasses in Time. 95 00:10:31,214 --> 00:10:36,184 They're for long distance. To look at something close, I take them off. 96 00:10:51,776 --> 00:10:57,019 - You could fry eggs on that thing. - The sand is keeping the heat in. 97 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:02,780 Uncle, Dr. Forrester. Dr. Matthew Collins is the pastor here. 98 00:11:02,996 --> 00:11:06,614 - Well, how do you do? - How do you do, sir? 99 00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:08,825 Hey, you! 100 00:11:15,592 --> 00:11:19,232 What have you got in here? It's ticking like a bomb. 101 00:11:22,015 --> 00:11:27,887 This is a Geiger counter for detecting radioactivity. 102 00:11:39,657 --> 00:11:42,658 - It's that meteor. - It's radioactive? 103 00:11:42,869 --> 00:11:46,789 Yes. It's difficult to account for a reaction like that. 104 00:11:52,045 --> 00:11:57,668 - Look at it. It's going crazy! - Maybe we should keep people away. 105 00:11:57,884 --> 00:12:00,754 I'll post a few deputies. 106 00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:07,622 That meteor is either very light, which is unheard of, or it's hollow. 107 00:12:07,769 --> 00:12:13,059 If it were heavy and solid, it would have made a tremendous crater. 108 00:12:13,274 --> 00:12:19,359 I'll wait around until it cools off. Is there a place I could clean up? 109 00:12:19,572 --> 00:12:23,784 - I'd like you to stay at my house. - Thank you. 110 00:12:23,993 --> 00:12:28,988 It won't be cool for 24 hours. What do people do here on a Saturday? 111 00:12:29,207 --> 00:12:33,750 - Not much of anything. - There's a square dance tonight. 112 00:13:06,411 --> 00:13:08,866 Let's take another look at it. 113 00:13:35,606 --> 00:13:39,604 - It's almost cold now. - We might as well go home. 114 00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:43,520 - No sense staying out here. - Let's go. 115 00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:51,700 Hey, it's moving! 116 00:14:09,557 --> 00:14:13,389 - It's a bomb! - It didn't go off last night... 117 00:14:13,603 --> 00:14:18,063 - Maybe it's gonna go off now. - It's a sneak attack. Let's go. 118 00:14:18,274 --> 00:14:20,267 Wait a minute. 119 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,645 Bombs don't unscrew. 120 00:14:25,698 --> 00:14:28,735 It's no meteor. That's for sure. 121 00:14:30,411 --> 00:14:34,990 Darnedest thing I ever saw, the way that's unscrewing. 122 00:14:44,300 --> 00:14:49,639 - Thank you, Doctor. Having fun? - You know what I was thinking? 123 00:14:49,847 --> 00:14:55,802 The energy from one square dance could send the meteor back home. 124 00:15:43,484 --> 00:15:49,190 - Must be somebody in there. - Who? Where do they come from? 125 00:15:49,407 --> 00:15:55,492 I read that Mars is near Earth now. It happens every 20 years, they say. 126 00:15:56,289 --> 00:15:58,447 Men from Mars... 127 00:15:59,125 --> 00:16:03,870 - What do you think? - Maybe these are not men, like us. 128 00:16:04,088 --> 00:16:07,868 Everything human doesn't have to look like you and me. 129 00:16:11,804 --> 00:16:16,100 If it's men from Mars, we ought to let them know we're friendly. 130 00:16:16,100 --> 00:16:21,687 - No, you don't know what it is. - We'd be the first to make contact. 131 00:16:21,898 --> 00:16:25,313 We'd be in all the papers. 132 00:16:25,526 --> 00:16:29,571 We could walk out there with a white flag. 133 00:16:29,780 --> 00:16:32,698 I got an old sugar sack in my car. 134 00:16:41,501 --> 00:16:44,288 What are we going to say to them? 135 00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:48,792 "Welcome to California." 136 00:16:49,008 --> 00:16:50,835 Come on. 137 00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:23,747 We're friends! 138 00:17:25,461 --> 00:17:27,169 Open up! 139 00:17:27,380 --> 00:17:34,343 - How will they understand us? - We'll talk in sign language. 140 00:17:34,554 --> 00:17:39,630 Everybody understands that the white flag means we want to be friends. 141 00:17:39,850 --> 00:17:43,718 - Hey there, open up! - Come on out, we're friends! 142 00:17:43,938 --> 00:17:48,267 - We welcome you! - We're friends! 143 00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:06,828 No smooching in the dark, folks. 144 00:18:08,546 --> 00:18:12,413 - Any candles around? - All the lights in town are out. 145 00:18:17,221 --> 00:18:21,349 - Somebody found some candles. - I like it in the dark. 146 00:18:21,559 --> 00:18:24,975 Call the electric company and see what happened. 147 00:18:35,031 --> 00:18:41,199 - Hey, the phone's gone dead. - The phone isn't on the same circuit. 148 00:18:41,412 --> 00:18:46,204 What are they saying? Something's wrong with my hearing aid. 149 00:18:46,417 --> 00:18:51,756 We play "Good Night Ladies" at midnight, anyway. It's near that now. 150 00:18:53,549 --> 00:18:56,716 - My watch has stopped. - I've got the time. 151 00:18:58,763 --> 00:19:04,184 - Mine's stopped, too. - Mine ain't working. What is this? 152 00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:11,232 They've all stopped at the same time. 153 00:19:11,442 --> 00:19:16,685 There's only one explanation for a thing like this. Do you have a pin? 154 00:19:29,835 --> 00:19:33,121 See that? My watch is magnetized. 155 00:19:34,757 --> 00:19:37,093 That's what knocked the phones out, too. 156 00:19:37,093 --> 00:19:43,510 - But everyone's watch all together? - Do you have a pocket compass? 157 00:19:46,477 --> 00:19:52,515 - The needle isn't pointing north. - It's pointing toward the meteor. 158 00:19:52,733 --> 00:19:54,773 Let me through! 159 00:20:06,205 --> 00:20:10,072 - What's going on? - I don't know any more than you do. 160 00:20:10,292 --> 00:20:12,182 Look at the fire out there! 161 00:20:45,077 --> 00:20:49,557 The power lines are down. That explains why the lights went out. 162 00:20:53,294 --> 00:20:57,494 - Hey, look at the cars! - Where are the three men you left? 163 00:21:02,052 --> 00:21:03,844 Look there! 164 00:21:10,227 --> 00:21:15,103 People in town started to follow us. Don't let them come near here. 165 00:21:29,246 --> 00:21:31,405 Get under cover! 166 00:21:46,597 --> 00:21:52,184 - What is that gizmo? - A machine from another planet. 167 00:21:53,604 --> 00:21:57,518 We'd better get word to the authorities. Look! 168 00:22:02,321 --> 00:22:08,240 Sheriff, you'd better get word to the military. You'll need them. 169 00:22:27,012 --> 00:22:29,005 Get moving. On the double. 170 00:22:31,475 --> 00:22:35,395 Take cover along the riverbed. Get those 30's over here. 171 00:22:38,816 --> 00:22:42,611 The area is controlled by Marines. The gully is surrounded. 172 00:22:42,611 --> 00:22:46,146 Here is Prof. McPherson of Canada. 173 00:22:46,365 --> 00:22:50,578 Is it true you've had reports of landings in other places? Canada? 174 00:22:50,578 --> 00:22:55,074 Not in Canada yet, but in Bordeaux, France. Some in Spain... 175 00:22:55,291 --> 00:22:58,909 There's supposed to be one down in Italy. 176 00:22:59,128 --> 00:23:04,028 We're trying to locate the second meteor that landed here at midnight. 177 00:23:04,049 --> 00:23:08,925 - Do you think they come from Mars? - Dr. Forrester? 178 00:23:09,138 --> 00:23:13,598 It's possible. It seems certain they're from some other planet. 179 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:19,518 If they are Martians, what would they look like? Bigger? Smaller? 180 00:23:19,732 --> 00:23:25,437 As to Martians, our heavier air would oppress them. 181 00:23:25,654 --> 00:23:30,482 You think they'd breathe like us. What about hearts and blood? 182 00:23:30,701 --> 00:23:38,163 If they are Martians, with hearts, they'd beat at a slower rate. 183 00:23:38,375 --> 00:23:41,791 Their senses could be quite different from ours. 184 00:23:42,004 --> 00:23:45,455 They may be able to smell colours. 185 00:23:45,674 --> 00:23:50,502 It is possible that they would have more than one brain. 186 00:23:50,721 --> 00:23:55,466 - Two? Three? Just think of that! - It's only speculation. 187 00:23:55,684 --> 00:23:58,602 What about these meteor machines? 188 00:23:58,812 --> 00:24:05,859 They're probably controlled by jets, navigated with a gyroscope system. 189 00:24:06,070 --> 00:24:11,823 Thank you, Doctor. Colonel, can you tell us anything about this plane? 190 00:24:12,034 --> 00:24:16,495 It'll drop a flare. Then Air Force cameramen will get pictures. 191 00:24:16,705 --> 00:24:22,044 There's been a lot of mysterious activity around the machine. 192 00:24:22,252 --> 00:24:27,572 Lights and dust, as if they're digging themselves out. There it comes again! 193 00:24:28,634 --> 00:24:31,924 If it keeps up, it'll be a guide for the plane. 194 00:24:40,145 --> 00:24:47,477 The pilot's just blipped his motor. That means he's dropped the flare. 195 00:24:47,695 --> 00:24:53,295 We'll be the first men on Earth to get a real look at these invaders from space. 196 00:25:07,923 --> 00:25:10,723 They're after the plane with their rays! 197 00:25:13,721 --> 00:25:15,221 Jump for it! 198 00:25:21,937 --> 00:25:23,645 Here we are... 199 00:25:24,857 --> 00:25:28,901 Hey, they cut me off! They got my truck! 200 00:25:32,322 --> 00:25:37,317 They'll come out of the gully soon. Our defences have to be ready. 201 00:25:37,536 --> 00:25:40,453 You'll need plenty of reinforcements. 202 00:26:29,755 --> 00:26:33,759 - The troops are certainly moving in. - You sent word to the 6th Army? 203 00:26:33,759 --> 00:26:36,795 No, Col. Heffner's in charge. 204 00:26:40,641 --> 00:26:45,145 You never know where you'll wind up when you go to a square dance. 205 00:26:45,145 --> 00:26:47,850 - That's D-24. - Correct. 206 00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:52,442 Locate your observation post on this hill. 207 00:26:52,653 --> 00:26:56,816 Position your recoilless 75's back here. Carbon Canyon. 208 00:26:57,032 --> 00:27:03,485 I want your battery here. In daylight you may be exposed. Be ready to pull out. 209 00:27:03,705 --> 00:27:07,750 - But you'll get first crack at them. - Suits me, sir. 210 00:27:12,131 --> 00:27:16,342 Heffner... Half-tracks? Okay. 211 00:27:16,552 --> 00:27:19,588 Get in back of Hill Three. 212 00:27:21,598 --> 00:27:26,509 If it's a moving target, follow up from there. Over and out. 213 00:27:29,273 --> 00:27:32,309 They've located that second meteor. 214 00:27:45,706 --> 00:27:49,696 There's one, there's the other. We're right between them. 215 00:27:49,835 --> 00:27:54,746 - So is the town. - I warned them to prepare to evacuate. 216 00:27:54,965 --> 00:27:57,836 Everyone has been alerted. 217 00:27:58,051 --> 00:28:04,968 - Gen. Mann, I was told to expect you. - I'm here to report back, not interfere. 218 00:28:05,184 --> 00:28:09,015 Clayton Forrester, I haven't seen you since Oak Ridge. 219 00:28:09,229 --> 00:28:13,108 This is Pastor Collins, Sheriff Bogany, head of local control. 220 00:28:13,108 --> 00:28:17,569 - Miss Van Buren. - Would you care for some coffee? 221 00:28:17,779 --> 00:28:21,909 Gen. Mann's in charge of intelligence for the Pacific area. 222 00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:26,447 You've certainly got them surrounded. 223 00:28:26,663 --> 00:28:31,793 - They've neutralized communications? - Not all. The field phones are okay. 224 00:28:31,793 --> 00:28:38,081 A cylinder reported by Huntington Beach. That's a job for the Navy. 225 00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:43,341 - Any news from abroad? - We're in touch with their militaries. 226 00:28:43,555 --> 00:28:49,178 They're coming down all over. Santiago has two cylinders. 227 00:28:49,394 --> 00:28:53,772 They're outside London. They're in Naples. 228 00:28:53,982 --> 00:28:58,478 We've got them between here and Fresno. Two on Long Island. 229 00:28:58,695 --> 00:29:02,444 - They're coming down at random. - No. 230 00:29:02,658 --> 00:29:07,746 According to information from foreign sources, they have some kind of plan. 231 00:29:07,746 --> 00:29:12,538 What it is isn't clear yet, because once they begin to move, - 232 00:29:12,751 --> 00:29:15,787 - no more news comes out of that area. 233 00:29:18,715 --> 00:29:22,795 We've had reports of destruction, massacre. 234 00:29:23,011 --> 00:29:26,795 "Town south of Bordeaux wiped out by ray." 235 00:29:27,015 --> 00:29:31,355 "Local reports say nothing remains." What do you make of that? 236 00:29:31,478 --> 00:29:37,599 - All we've seen is their heat ray. - Our newest weapons will stop them. 237 00:29:37,818 --> 00:29:42,147 From the data, and that picture the Air Force took tonight, - 238 00:29:42,364 --> 00:29:45,815 - this is the original pilot ship. 239 00:29:46,034 --> 00:29:50,364 Its observations guided the others down. 240 00:29:50,580 --> 00:29:57,164 One lands, then two, making groups of three joined magnetically. 241 00:29:57,379 --> 00:30:03,251 My orders are not to go into action unless they move out of the gully. 242 00:30:03,468 --> 00:30:06,754 This is the only place we have them contained. 243 00:30:06,972 --> 00:30:10,517 What happens here will be a guide to other operations. 244 00:30:10,517 --> 00:30:15,697 When it starts, and a defence pattern develops, I'll report to Washington. 245 00:30:17,024 --> 00:30:22,694 - You've deployed your forces well. - We'll blast them right off Earth. 246 00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:34,950 They'll probably move at dawn. 247 00:31:15,248 --> 00:31:18,534 There's something moving in the gully. 248 00:31:51,368 --> 00:31:53,610 Look at it. 249 00:31:54,371 --> 00:31:57,241 Beings from another world. 250 00:32:04,965 --> 00:32:07,538 - Is it a flying machine? - No. 251 00:32:07,759 --> 00:32:13,548 It's supported from the ground by rays. Probably some form of magnetic flux. 252 00:32:13,765 --> 00:32:16,470 This is amazing! 253 00:32:16,685 --> 00:32:21,189 They must keep the opposing poles in balance and lift the machine. 254 00:32:21,189 --> 00:32:22,689 Stand by to fire. 255 00:32:24,484 --> 00:32:27,106 All command posts, stand by to fire. 256 00:32:32,784 --> 00:32:38,075 - But Colonel, shooting's no good. - It's always been a good persuader. 257 00:32:38,290 --> 00:32:43,610 Shouldn't you try communicating with them first, then shoot, if you have to? 258 00:33:09,196 --> 00:33:12,031 Target as indicated. 259 00:33:22,459 --> 00:33:26,706 We should try to make them understand we mean them no harm. 260 00:33:26,922 --> 00:33:29,372 There's another machine coming out! 261 00:33:37,307 --> 00:33:39,976 They are living creatures. 262 00:33:40,185 --> 00:33:43,850 They're not human. They're an advanced civilization. 263 00:33:44,064 --> 00:33:50,351 If they're more advanced than us, they should be nearer the Creator. 264 00:33:57,827 --> 00:34:01,327 No attempt has been made to communicate with them. 265 00:34:01,414 --> 00:34:03,952 Let's go back inside, Uncle Matthew. 266 00:34:05,627 --> 00:34:10,372 I've done all I can in there. You go back. Sylvia... 267 00:34:10,590 --> 00:34:14,422 I like that Dr. Forrester. He's a good man. 268 00:34:15,387 --> 00:34:20,891 Attention all batteries: Prepare for volley fire. 269 00:34:40,662 --> 00:34:42,204 Who's that? 270 00:34:48,044 --> 00:34:49,934 What's he think he's doing? 271 00:34:52,716 --> 00:34:56,500 - Uncle! Stop him! - It's too late. He's too far away. 272 00:34:56,720 --> 00:35:02,110 Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil. 273 00:35:04,853 --> 00:35:06,430 It's seen him. 274 00:35:11,359 --> 00:35:15,606 Thou anointest my head with oil. My cup runneth over. 275 00:35:20,452 --> 00:35:26,038 And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever... 276 00:35:33,798 --> 00:35:35,618 - Let 'em have it! - Fire! 277 00:35:57,781 --> 00:36:03,949 The shells can't get through. They've put up an electromagnetic covering. 278 00:37:17,944 --> 00:37:22,844 That skeleton beam must be what they used to wipe out the French city. 279 00:37:22,866 --> 00:37:29,698 Cut across their lines of magnetic force and any object will cease to exist. 280 00:37:29,914 --> 00:37:34,742 Take my word for it, General. This defence is useless against them. 281 00:37:34,961 --> 00:37:37,691 You'd better let Washington know. Fast. 282 00:37:38,965 --> 00:37:41,123 Hold them as long as you can. 283 00:38:05,074 --> 00:38:10,531 Order all command posts to pull back north of the tunnel bunker. 284 00:38:40,777 --> 00:38:45,490 Everybody out of here! The Air Force will take care of these babies now. 285 00:38:45,490 --> 00:38:50,033 Dr. Forrester, get out of here. Everybody out... 286 00:39:19,482 --> 00:39:25,152 - Can't you go higher? - The air will be full of jets in a minute. 287 00:40:16,789 --> 00:40:21,784 Read all about the Martian invasion. They're in New York and Miami. 288 00:40:22,003 --> 00:40:26,546 Fighting outside Los Angeles. Read all about it. 289 00:40:46,486 --> 00:40:51,728 - Hold it right there, General. - What do you think of the situation? 290 00:40:53,409 --> 00:40:57,399 - Do you believe we can hold them? - Sorry, I've no time. 291 00:40:59,457 --> 00:41:01,165 Break it up. 292 00:41:02,669 --> 00:41:07,219 The way he's hedging, maybe we didn't hold them. I've heard news. 293 00:41:07,382 --> 00:41:11,842 Australia, India... Nobody's stopped them yet. 294 00:41:12,053 --> 00:41:17,213 - If the city must be evacuated... - Many have already moved out. 295 00:41:17,433 --> 00:41:21,437 - We've mobilized cars and buses. - The Red Cross is standing by. 296 00:41:21,437 --> 00:41:24,972 The enemy is 30 miles outside Los Angeles. 297 00:41:25,191 --> 00:41:31,443 Not in full force yet, but developing. It can happen any minute. 298 00:41:31,656 --> 00:41:35,950 - Washington is on the line, sir. - General Mann. 299 00:41:37,870 --> 00:41:42,782 I'd say our effective losses were 60% men, 90% material. 300 00:41:43,001 --> 00:41:45,836 The jets went in but none came out. 301 00:41:46,045 --> 00:41:52,084 Bombers were knocked out of the sky, and their bombs did nothing. 302 00:41:52,301 --> 00:41:55,884 Their electronic umbrella is quite impenetrable. 303 00:41:56,097 --> 00:42:01,471 Forrester thinks they generate atomic force without the screening we use. 304 00:42:04,689 --> 00:42:10,193 Very well, sir. Get me the fastest plane we've got. 305 00:42:10,403 --> 00:42:13,553 Now I'll make a statement to those reporters. 306 00:42:17,285 --> 00:42:20,155 All right, the general will see you now. 307 00:42:21,247 --> 00:42:26,242 We heard Forrester was out with you. What does he think about this? 308 00:42:26,461 --> 00:42:31,585 - Ask him. He's back at Pacific Tech. - No, he's not. He hasn't shown up. 309 00:43:32,151 --> 00:43:33,776 Wake up. 310 00:43:39,075 --> 00:43:41,317 Let's get moving. 311 00:43:47,166 --> 00:43:50,416 - Are you all right? - It's that machine! 312 00:43:50,628 --> 00:43:54,329 It's gone. We're south-west of Corona. 313 00:43:54,549 --> 00:43:59,799 There must have been another cylinder down here. They cleared everyone out. 314 00:43:59,971 --> 00:44:04,929 There's a farmhouse out there. Let's find something to eat. 315 00:44:13,442 --> 00:44:17,939 We're doing all right. I almost forgot when I ate last. 316 00:44:19,574 --> 00:44:26,193 That looks good. Mostly I get my meals in coffee shops and restaurants. 317 00:44:26,414 --> 00:44:30,894 - Don't you live at home? - No, on campus. I haven't any family. 318 00:44:31,085 --> 00:44:38,048 I come from a big one. There's nine of us, all in Minnesota. Except me. 319 00:44:38,259 --> 00:44:42,636 I have no close folks. My parents died when I was a kid. 320 00:44:42,847 --> 00:44:47,768 A big family must be fun. It must make you feel you belong to something. 321 00:44:47,768 --> 00:44:51,220 It does. Maybe that's why I feel lost right now. 322 00:44:51,439 --> 00:44:55,389 We'll get out safely. Don't worry. 323 00:44:56,652 --> 00:44:58,905 They murder everything that moves. 324 00:44:58,905 --> 00:45:05,488 If they're mortal, they have mortal weaknesses. They'll be stopped. 325 00:45:07,121 --> 00:45:10,875 I haven't been close enough to them for any real observation. 326 00:45:10,875 --> 00:45:17,791 I feel like I did once when I was small. Awful scared and lonesome. 327 00:45:18,007 --> 00:45:20,628 I'd wandered off. I've forgotten why. 328 00:45:22,011 --> 00:45:26,351 The family and whole crowds of neighbours were hunting for me. 329 00:45:26,849 --> 00:45:31,392 They found me in a church. I was afraid to go in any place else. 330 00:45:33,356 --> 00:45:38,396 I stayed by that door, praying for the one who loved me best to find me. 331 00:45:44,283 --> 00:45:48,826 - It was Uncle Matthew who found me. - I liked him. 332 00:45:50,164 --> 00:45:54,791 He liked you. Oh, I could bawl my head off. 333 00:45:55,002 --> 00:46:00,252 But you won't, you're not the kind. You're tired. You've been up all night. 334 00:46:00,383 --> 00:46:05,213 You crashed in a plane, slept in a ditch. You want to know something? 335 00:46:06,847 --> 00:46:09,469 It doesn't show on you at all. 336 00:46:21,570 --> 00:46:23,362 Get down! 337 00:46:59,150 --> 00:47:02,528 - How long was I out? - Hours. I've been so scared! 338 00:47:02,528 --> 00:47:06,588 They're right outside. Several of them came down together. 339 00:47:23,841 --> 00:47:27,271 There's a machine standing right alongside of us. 340 00:48:44,505 --> 00:48:49,630 An electronic eye. Like a television camera. 341 00:48:53,431 --> 00:48:54,931 It's looking for us. 342 00:49:21,333 --> 00:49:24,370 Maybe they're not too sure we're here. 343 00:49:28,549 --> 00:49:32,547 They could be as curious about us as we are about them. 344 00:49:36,307 --> 00:49:38,762 Maybe they want to take us alive. 345 00:49:52,198 --> 00:49:53,858 It's pulling out. 346 00:50:11,759 --> 00:50:14,297 Can't we get out of here? 347 00:50:24,855 --> 00:50:29,932 - Something moved out there. - There's nothing there now. 348 00:50:30,152 --> 00:50:33,355 - It was one of them! - What was it like? 349 00:50:33,572 --> 00:50:39,741 - I couldn't see much in the dark. - I've got to get a good look at them. 350 00:50:50,297 --> 00:50:54,710 - They've blocked it! - It's blocked here, too. 351 00:50:54,927 --> 00:50:58,296 They've pushed earth all around the outside. 352 00:50:58,514 --> 00:51:02,013 Here, this is the way up to the attic. 353 00:51:23,872 --> 00:51:25,580 Look out! 354 00:52:54,213 --> 00:52:56,122 Your scarf. 355 00:52:58,509 --> 00:53:00,300 It's wet. 356 00:53:04,515 --> 00:53:06,015 Blood... 357 00:53:12,356 --> 00:53:14,763 Stop it. Stop it! 358 00:53:45,472 --> 00:53:48,758 We've got to make a run for it. Come on! 359 00:53:55,774 --> 00:54:01,113 The Martians had calculated their descent with amazing perfection. 360 00:54:01,321 --> 00:54:05,075 As more of their cylinders came from the mysterious depths of space, - 361 00:54:05,075 --> 00:54:09,371 - their war machines, awesome in their power and complexity, - 362 00:54:09,371 --> 00:54:13,203 - created a wave of fear throughout the world. 363 00:54:13,417 --> 00:54:20,415 Governments tried to coordinate their defences with those of other nations. 364 00:54:23,260 --> 00:54:27,009 The government of India met in a railroad coach, - 365 00:54:27,222 --> 00:54:33,510 - while millions streamed for the imagined safety of the Himalayas. 366 00:54:33,729 --> 00:54:40,894 The Finnish, Turkish, Chinese and Bolivians worked and fought furiously. 367 00:54:41,111 --> 00:54:47,730 Every effort against their other-world antagonists ended in the same rout. 368 00:54:51,246 --> 00:54:55,542 As the Martians burned fields and forests, and cities fell before them, - 369 00:54:55,542 --> 00:55:01,663 - people were driven from their homes. The stream of flight became a torrent. 370 00:55:01,882 --> 00:55:06,045 It became a giant stampede, without order or goal. 371 00:55:06,261 --> 00:55:11,511 It was the beginning of the rout of civilization, the massacre of humanity. 372 00:55:17,356 --> 00:55:22,746 A great silence fell over half of Europe, as all communication was disrupted. 373 00:55:24,279 --> 00:55:29,076 When the last wire photo out of Paris reached the exiled French Cabinet, - 374 00:55:29,076 --> 00:55:32,694 - they hit upon the idea of using jets as couriers. 375 00:55:32,913 --> 00:55:35,783 Carrying extra fuel instead of weapons, - 376 00:55:35,958 --> 00:55:43,419 - they maintained contact with North Africa, the US and especially England. 377 00:55:43,632 --> 00:55:49,801 The Martians plainly knew the strategic significance of the British Isles. 378 00:55:50,013 --> 00:55:55,333 The people of Britain met the invaders magnificently, but it was unavailing. 379 00:55:56,353 --> 00:56:00,607 As the Martians swept toward London, the British Cabinet stayed in session, - 380 00:56:00,607 --> 00:56:04,778 - coordinating every item of information that could be gathered, - 381 00:56:04,778 --> 00:56:10,651 - passing it on to the UN in New York, and from there to Washington, - 382 00:56:10,868 --> 00:56:15,446 - the only remaining unassailed strategic point. 383 00:56:44,693 --> 00:56:50,778 It's vital to prevent the Martian machines from linking up. 384 00:56:50,991 --> 00:56:55,051 Once they do, they adopt an extraordinary military tactic. 385 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:59,663 They form a crescent, anchor it at one end - 386 00:56:59,875 --> 00:57:03,235 - and sweep on until they've cleared a quadrant. 387 00:57:04,379 --> 00:57:09,337 Then they anchor the opposite end and reverse direction. 388 00:57:09,551 --> 00:57:14,806 They slash across country, wiping out everything that's trying to evade them. 389 00:57:14,806 --> 00:57:18,352 That's why communications are cut once they begin moving. 390 00:57:18,352 --> 00:57:23,273 - Montreal's blacked out. Nothing. - Same thing as on the Pacific coast. 391 00:57:23,273 --> 00:57:27,567 - Anything from them yet? - Still nothing from San Francisco. 392 00:57:27,778 --> 00:57:34,361 - Here's that Los Angeles picture, sir. - This is a sonic radar picture. 393 00:57:34,576 --> 00:57:38,538 It shows details of the Martian nest outside Los Angeles. 394 00:57:38,538 --> 00:57:41,658 Their machines appear as round blobs. 395 00:57:41,875 --> 00:57:45,078 Newly fallen cylinders are elongated. 396 00:57:45,295 --> 00:57:50,405 There are three cylinders to each group, three machines to each cylinder. 397 00:57:55,847 --> 00:57:58,385 All right, I've seen enough. 398 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:06,147 Only one thing will stop them. We've held back because of the radiation. 399 00:58:06,358 --> 00:58:11,748 Now there's no choice. Washington will confirm an order to use the atom bomb. 400 00:58:11,822 --> 00:58:16,201 Our first target will be the initial landing place outside L.A. 401 00:58:16,201 --> 00:58:22,370 Have Pacific Tech monitor the drop. I'll have the area cleared all around. 402 00:58:26,253 --> 00:58:31,223 We can still hit them before dark. We'll blast them all over the world. 403 00:58:39,558 --> 00:58:45,477 - We've been looking all over for you. - We walked halfway from Corona. 404 00:58:45,689 --> 00:58:50,379 This is Miss Van Buren. Dr. Grotzman, Dr. Pryor, James, Bilderbeck. 405 00:58:50,569 --> 00:58:56,405 - What's this about the A-bomb? - We're going in right after it. 406 00:58:56,616 --> 00:59:00,531 - What's that? - An electronic eye. 407 00:59:00,746 --> 00:59:05,709 They modelled it after their own eye. They use it the way we use a periscope. 408 00:59:05,709 --> 00:59:10,834 - It'll tell us about their metals. - We can find out about their optics. 409 00:59:11,047 --> 00:59:16,801 - Very interesting. - And this... the blood of a Martian. 410 00:59:19,222 --> 00:59:23,968 I don't remember ever seeing blood crystals as anaemic as these. 411 00:59:24,895 --> 00:59:27,682 They may be mental giants, - 412 00:59:27,898 --> 00:59:32,939 - but by our standards, physically, they must be very primitive. 413 00:59:34,029 --> 00:59:38,157 Everything about them seems to be in threes. 414 00:59:38,366 --> 00:59:44,072 Their eyes have three lenses, three pupils. Strong light shocks them. 415 00:59:44,289 --> 00:59:48,293 Sunlight on Mars is approximately half as strong as we get it. 416 00:59:48,293 --> 00:59:53,002 Add their clouds and dust, it amounts to no more than our twilight. 417 00:59:54,841 --> 00:59:58,175 Now, if you'll step over here, please. 418 00:59:58,386 --> 01:00:03,636 We've rigged the epidiascope to reflect whatever the Martian lens picks up. 419 01:00:07,062 --> 01:00:09,849 Move in a little. Thank you. 420 01:00:42,681 --> 01:00:45,468 There's how the Martians see us. 421 01:00:57,654 --> 01:01:00,774 Evidently there's a shift in their spectrum. 422 01:01:02,826 --> 01:01:06,526 Their colour absorption must be different from ours. 423 01:01:12,210 --> 01:01:16,480 Let's see why they were so curious about you, Miss Van Buren. 424 01:01:24,181 --> 01:01:28,130 - Time we got started, gentlemen. - Let's go. 425 01:01:31,104 --> 01:01:37,024 - Let's make an analysis of their blood. - It might give us something. 426 01:01:37,235 --> 01:01:42,905 You can get all the Martian blood you want after the plane drops the bomb. 427 01:01:44,034 --> 01:01:46,821 The Flying Wing is going to carry it. 428 01:01:56,129 --> 01:01:59,996 Tower, this is Flying Wing, ready for take-off. 429 01:02:00,217 --> 01:02:03,787 Flying Wing, this is the tower. Clear for take-off. 430 01:02:03,970 --> 01:02:06,129 Wish us luck. 431 01:02:32,958 --> 01:02:37,508 The target is the nest of Martian machines in the Puenta Hills, - 432 01:02:37,629 --> 01:02:41,543 - where more cylinders came down last evening. 433 01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:45,341 A plane will pinpoint the target from six miles up. 434 01:02:45,553 --> 01:02:50,844 This bomb is ten times more powerful than anything previously used. 435 01:02:51,059 --> 01:02:58,390 Nothing like it has ever been exploded before. We're going to be pretty close, - 436 01:02:58,608 --> 01:03:04,148 - but there are observers in a forward bunker who will be a lot nearer than us. 437 01:03:04,364 --> 01:03:11,494 The whole world is waiting. This will decide the fate of civilization. 438 01:03:11,705 --> 01:03:15,555 Whether we live or die may depend on what happens here. 439 01:03:15,625 --> 01:03:20,252 Attention! Four minutes to bomb time. 440 01:03:21,548 --> 01:03:26,168 There must be a couple of million people behind us in the hills, - 441 01:03:26,344 --> 01:03:30,674 - waiting to find out whether they can go home again. 442 01:03:30,890 --> 01:03:38,138 Direct cable communication is being maintained with Washington, - 443 01:03:38,356 --> 01:03:44,026 - but there's no radio at all. Not even with the bomber that's coming over. 444 01:03:44,237 --> 01:03:47,404 All radio is dead, - 445 01:03:47,615 --> 01:03:54,329 - which means that these recordings are for the sake of future history, if any. 446 01:03:55,790 --> 01:03:58,328 Future history, he said. 447 01:04:00,170 --> 01:04:01,670 Yes, if any. 448 01:04:11,639 --> 01:04:16,764 Bilderbeck's calculated how long we have until they take over the world. 449 01:04:16,978 --> 01:04:23,597 If the A-bomb fails, the Martians can conquer Earth in six days. 450 01:04:24,527 --> 01:04:27,677 The same number of days it took to create it. 451 01:04:33,787 --> 01:04:39,410 Attention! Two minutes to bomb time. Prepare to take shelter. 452 01:04:41,461 --> 01:04:44,082 If you have no goggles, turn away. 453 01:04:44,297 --> 01:04:48,917 Remember, the heat flash and concussion that follow are dangerous. 454 01:05:03,775 --> 01:05:05,399 50 seconds. 455 01:05:08,238 --> 01:05:09,946 There's the plane. 456 01:05:11,699 --> 01:05:13,359 40 seconds. 457 01:05:16,287 --> 01:05:18,992 We've sighted the plane, sir. 458 01:05:21,668 --> 01:05:25,119 - 30 seconds. - Look. Look! 459 01:05:27,632 --> 01:05:31,048 They're using those protective blisters again. 460 01:05:31,261 --> 01:05:33,419 Attention! Stand by. 461 01:05:33,638 --> 01:05:35,796 15 seconds. 462 01:05:38,351 --> 01:05:44,804 10 seconds. 9, 8, 7, 6... 463 01:05:45,775 --> 01:05:51,398 ...5, 4, 3, 2, 1. 464 01:06:24,939 --> 01:06:28,024 Hello? What can you see? 465 01:06:38,203 --> 01:06:39,953 There's something moving! 466 01:06:50,965 --> 01:06:53,135 They haven't even been touched! 467 01:07:03,645 --> 01:07:08,722 It didn't stop them. Guns, tanks, bombs, they're like toys against them! 468 01:07:08,942 --> 01:07:12,560 It'll end only one way. We're beaten. 469 01:07:14,447 --> 01:07:17,068 No... Not yet. 470 01:07:19,869 --> 01:07:24,415 Washington ordered all cities in danger of attack evacuated if the bomb fails. 471 01:07:24,415 --> 01:07:30,169 They'll be moving on Los Angeles now. We'll fight them back to the mountains. 472 01:07:31,923 --> 01:07:36,193 Our best hope lies in what you people can develop to help us. 473 01:07:38,930 --> 01:07:43,343 Six days, you said. Six days... 474 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,311 They'll stamp the city flat. 475 01:07:49,524 --> 01:07:53,514 We'll establish a base laboratory in the Rocky Mountains. 476 01:07:53,653 --> 01:07:57,437 - We'll search out their weaknesses. - A forlorn hope. 477 01:07:57,657 --> 01:08:01,411 - But there is a chance. - We may get a lead from the blood. 478 01:08:01,411 --> 01:08:07,698 - By some biological approach? - We can't beat their machines. 479 01:08:07,917 --> 01:08:09,709 We've got to beat them. 480 01:08:24,809 --> 01:08:27,561 Everybody listen carefully! 481 01:08:27,770 --> 01:08:31,934 The Martians are coming this way. We must evacuate. 482 01:08:32,150 --> 01:08:35,400 Take food, water and extra clothing. 483 01:08:35,612 --> 01:08:41,566 All highways have been marked to lead you to welfare centres in the hills. 484 01:09:03,139 --> 01:09:06,056 Keep them rolling! 485 01:09:06,267 --> 01:09:08,260 Come on! 486 01:10:15,878 --> 01:10:19,924 - Gratzman, did you get those biotics? - No, I thought you had them. 487 01:10:19,924 --> 01:10:24,404 I'll get them.

Succour and comfort us in this hour. 528 01:20:12,016 --> 01:20:13,640 Please, God. 529 01:20:28,866 --> 01:20:30,366 Sylvia! 530 01:20:55,017 --> 01:20:58,101 - Here! Here! - Sylvia! 531 01:21:08,530 --> 01:21:10,737 Let me through! Please! 532 01:22:08,715 --> 01:22:12,298 It's quiet. Maybe they've gone away. 533 01:23:37,095 --> 01:23:39,586 Something's happening to them. 534 01:23:58,659 --> 01:24:00,159 It's dead. 535 01:24:17,094 --> 01:24:20,011 We were all praying for a miracle. 536 01:24:32,651 --> 01:24:38,654 The Martians had no resistance to the bacteria in our atmosphere. 537 01:24:38,865 --> 01:24:44,370 Once they breathed our air, germs harmless to us began to kill them. 538 01:24:44,580 --> 01:24:51,412 The end came swiftly. All over the world, their machines stopped and fell. 539 01:24:51,628 --> 01:24:54,423 After all that men could do had failed, - 540 01:24:54,423 --> 01:24:57,853 - the Martians were destroyed and humanity saved- 541 01:24:58,051 --> 01:25:03,508 - by the littlest things which God in His wisdom had put upon this earth.
