As a result, the birth of modern science fiction, when directors explored new ideas, fears and scientific opportunities that suddenly headed for them. Life in the 1950s meant to live in a world where everything was possible and no one knew what would happen.
Although you can assume that limited special effects will make your movies dated and insignificant, nothing can be away from the truth. The best of them was as much as possible what he had, and the stories of those 50s Scientific-fiction Films said what became the basis for most of what you are now taking for granted when you got into the game on a new streaming show.

War of the Worlds (1953)
The world has numerous adaptations to the classic novel “Classic alien invasion” HG Wells, both before and after the release of director George Pelo 1953, but no one has done it better. The version of Stephen Spielberg is not especially unlikely. Sorry Dakota Faning.
The movie accepts the book and modern by setting up The war of the worlds In the 1950s. It also changes alien ships from the wallpaper into smooth, floating ships with heat transfer.
Initially, the film planned to use the tripods, but eventually he chose something more possible for limited practical effects of the era. The change gives this version of the story a unique appearance, and the film remains as effective and tense as and when -something.
It is also the perfect window in America in the 1950s, complete with all the innocence of weekly dances and firm determination brought by soldiers who have just survived the World War and now found themselves in the other.
Godla (1954)
What started as Japanese allegory for the horror of World War II has since become the longest franchise of films in the history of films. It was this Japanese function of 1954 that began everything.
Godl In the home country, the Hedgir is called. But as you would call it, this atomic fire-toothed Kajja is the highest sci-fantastic icon.
Of course, it’s just a man in a lizard that stupid on miniatures but you don’t mind. Godl It is perfectly filmed, and history is an original pattern for all films about gigantic creatures that you have seen. You have to see it to enjoy the city meeting, and better understand what the world was, how humanity tried to cope with the post -nuclear horrors of World War II.
20 000 leagues under the sea (1954)
In 1954 Walt Dysne Classic novel 1869 Jules Verne, 1869, 20 000 leagues under the seaThe big budget, blockbuscent. The film became a hit, and since then no one else has made a significant attempt to tailor the book.
It starred Kirk Douglas in the role of Harpooner Ned Land and one of the classic Hollywood people, James Mason as Captain Nemo. Mixing parts The mysterious islandThe film is undervalued, with an original novel 20,000 leagues under the sea, the film adapted to innovative history.
The rough, nihilistic edges of the nema are mitigated, but Mason performs fantastic work with the complex character, Jules Verne, who is a hero and villain, depending on whom you ask.
A day when the land stood in place (1951)
Freed in the Cold War, A day when the land was standing in place Investigates what happens when the alien, nicknamed Clatat, comes from peace, only discover the fracture of the world filled with divisions.
Actions are small and special effects arE rudimentary, but Michael Reni’s performance is like a class, pursuing and creating a template for foreigners Hollywood uses today. Since then, this classic story has been re -planned again and again, but the original 1951 film remains the best and is a reminder that humanity has not advanced as much as we would like to think.
This Island Earth (1955)
This Island Earth It was created to raise the sci-fantastic genre outside the status of B-film. This is not quite the goal; The production of the film is a mixed bag, and the story is uneven. After all, this will be considered a iconic classic.

Them! (1954)
After World War II, the atomic paranoia was everywhere not only in Japan but also in the US. No one was sure what to expect next, causing such movies Godl and, in the United States, Them!
Them! This is a completely different story from GodlAlthough it is also about gigantic creatures created by atomic bombs. It works on a smaller scale, starting with a distant desert with two police officers who are investigating a number of murders.
Them! It is gradually expanding by volume, but slowly and methodically. Yes, it is a story of gigantic ants, but it is also a story of competent and brave people who make all the right things to protect the world from the impossible.
Godl It’s a movie about a disaster but Them! This is a detective story, and you should look at the performances and well -thought -out spelling as it is worth looking for giant ants.
