3.5/5

But while it's first and foremost a terrific showcase for some imaginative designers, Invaders From Mars also holds together fairly well as a movie.

None of this will exactly make you faint -- either from terror or pleasure.

...the first half of Invaders From Mars is easily the best, with a strange off-kilter feel that comes from slavishly updating a 50's storyline...

[UPDATED 2024 BLU-RAY REVIEW] A hapless remake from the jokers who also gave the world Bolero, Firewalker, and Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Por mucho cariño que le tenga a Tobe Hooper, este remake de Invaders from Mars se me ha quedado un poco atragantado. Ojo que a nivel técnico, especialmente en los efectos practicos y maquillaje, no está nada mal y a pesar de su rollito más "muppet", puede llegar a ser creepy. Sin embargo el guión es un poco desastre, el niño es un incordio a nivel máximo, mientras que algunos actores principales están para darle de comer a parte, y la sensación que se te queda es un poco descafeinada. Una lástima porque su idea e historia podría funcionar de forma perfecta (ese juego de la duda de quién puede estar o no poseido no se aprovecha para nada). Tendré que ver la de los 50´, para ver si está algo mejor.
