I was surprised to find this disc (a 2-disc package) slightly difficult to get; I'd assumed it would be more easily available, which is why I had delayed collecting it. Fortunately, this used copy arrived in perfect condition. The DVD is one of four black and white films expertly colorized under the supervision of Ray Harryhausen: SAUCERS (1956), his own TWENTY MILLION MILES TO EARTH (1957) and IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA (1955) and Merian C. Cooper's SHE (1935). All are worth getting, and contain the option of watching in black and white or the new color. They have numerous fascinating extras and commentary tracks, which include the extremely knowledgeable Harryhausen. The film is notable for being his single example of "pure" science fiction (his others all partake of fantasy narratives and elements, though the earlier films contain more science-fictional aspects). To me, this DVD is indeed a good value and a key piece of a limited and necessary set. Highly recommended! Read full review

Originally regarded as just a sci Fi pot boiler, this film has grown in esteem over the years. It is literate. well written, and very entertaining. The Ray Harryhausen special effects are special.

One of the BEST & most engaging Sci-Fi movies from the mid 1950's Cold War Era. Altho, I wondered if being Colorized would do it justice?? YES!! This specific Colorization was so well done it really ADDS to this outstanding Sci-Fi Classic!

Loved this classic sci-fi when I was wet behind the ears. Sixty years later, I still love this movie for all the same reasons as before! It's just plain engaging and now it's in color! It's not a good value because it's so darn expensive compared to most other movies these days. Oh well.

One of the all time best of the classic, cheesy 1950's Sci-Fi movies. I can't decide if I like the original black and white or the colorized version better, they each have their unique characteristics that make me love them both!
