Invisible Invaders1959
“A sci-fi shocker that'll keep you awake at night!”
Directed by Edward L. Cahn
The premise
Aliens, contacting scientist Adam Penner, inform him that they have been on the moon for twenty thousand years, undetected due to their invisibility, and have now decided to annihilate humanity unless all the nations of earth surrender immediately. Sequestered in an impregnable laboratory trying to find the aliens' weakness, Penner, his daughter, a no-nonsense army major and a squeamish scientist are attacked from outside by the aliens, who have occupied the bodies of the recently deceased.
Horror Vault's take
When an unseen extraterrestrial force delivers an ultimatum to mankind, a small team of scientists and military personnel find themselves barricaded against an unstoppable outside threat. The aliens have found a chilling way to wage their war — animating the recently dead as vessels for their invisible forms. Trapped in a fortified lab, the group races to uncover any vulnerability in an enemy that cannot be seen, heard, or easily stopped. This late-1950s sci-fi chiller blends Cold War dread with proto-zombie horror in a way that feels both of its era and ahead of its time.
