Ce film est cultissime. Sorti en 1956, il fait assurément partie de l'histoire du cinéma.

Eines der Berühmtesten Sci-Fi-Meisterwerke aller Zeiten ! Warner Bros. hat bei dieser Special Edition das Maximum herausgeholt (beide DVD's sind randvoll mit Specials), zu einem niedrigen Preis. Die Doku's sind der Hammer !
Bei der Doku "Watch The Skies" philosophieren S.Spielberg, G.Lucas, R.Scott & J.Cameron über die Sci-Fi-Filmklassiker der 1950er Jahre. Einfach Genial von A-Z !!!
