Misleading title, but intriguing film
Aliens invade rural England
I taped The Earth Dies Screaming when Channel 4 screened it some years ago, but, unfortunately I never saw the last five or 10 minutes as the tape ran out. It hasn't been on again since nor has it been released on VHS or DVD.
Aliens have invaded the UK and killer robots are reviving dead humans as zombies and the few survivors have to try and stop them.
The thing I remember most about this movie are the scenes of the robots slowly walking through the rural village. Very eerie.
The cast includes Willard Parker, Dennis Price, Virginia Field and Hammer and sci-fi regular Thorley Walters (Frankenstein Created Woman, The People That Time Forgot).
It would be nice to see The Earth Dies Screraming again, especially the ending. Come on Channel 4 or any other channel, let's have it on again.
Rating: 3 stars out of 5.
