The War Of The Worlds

The night after a shooting star is seen streaking across the sky, a cylinder is discovered on Horsell Common. Fascinated and exhilarated, the local people approach the mysterious object armed with nothing more than a white flag.

As the rays blaze towards them, it soon becomes clear they have no choice but to flee - or die.
