ALIEN
ABDUCTION

But it was really an alien who took me into the night.

FORBIDDEN
PLANET

Forbidden Planet holds up so well because it is

materialization
of our own inner demons.

WAR
OF THE WORLDS
Across the gulf of space,
intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this earth with
envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us. In the end, the Martians were
defeated not by science or the military, but by bacteria germs, or to
quote H.G. Wells, "the humblest things that God in his wisdom has put
upon the earth."
