In this 1986, Tobe Hooper (Lifeforce) remake of the 1953 film- Invaders from Mars we are treated to some of the worse child acting possible...sit back and enjoy.
Plot: David Gardener is a space obsessed child, living with his mum and scientist dad in a rural house, near an Army base, that happens to be planning to send a NASA ship to Mars. One night, after a particularly vibrant display of comets, David is convinced that he sees a spaceship land, just over the hill. Upon investigation in the morning, David's dad starts acting a mite strange.
Think Invasion of the Bodysnatchers, less the pods and replaced with neck inserted rods.
The highlight of the film is two-fold, Louise Fletcher performing her bitchy best and a series of Martian creatures that owe a lot to Little Shop of Horrors.
Budget: $7,000,000
Gross: $4,984,663
Fun Fact: Numerous props make appearances throughout the film, including the original child star as the Police Chief. Louise Fletcher was nominated for Worse Supporting Actress at the Razzies for this performance.
