My favorite since I was a child
I was born in 1953 so I caught this rare gem on TV. Scared me as a child, but was very thought provoking. The acting was great as was the special effects for the day.

An absolute classic
if you in any way consider yourself a sci-fi movie fan, you must see this movie. Not only is it a classi, but you can see how it influenced so many other sci-fi movies to come. Plus, its perfectly fine for everyone.
