We are treated to a great horror/sci-fi film in this 1951 adaptation of the John W. Campell Jr. novel. Featuring a fast paced, witty script by Charles Lederer and directed by Christian Nyby (and Howard Hawks uncredited) with expert acting by Margaret Sheridan, Kenneth Tobey, Robert Cornthwaite, James Arness and others, this film offers great atmosphere, a few memorable jump scares and a monster to rival any monster to ever appear in film. “Watch the skies. Keep watching the skies!”
