Welcome back to Monsters Mash since the early days of science fiction UFOs has been the backbone of the genre either your a skeptic or a believer this is the UFO and this is the classic movie
the plot is a blunt full scale alien invasion the stop motion effect were made by film legends Ray Harryhausen, Ray made the UFO to look like it tilts and give some chilling sound effect to give them and unearthly look, Harryhausen would have to paint the strings over and over like a chameleon today that would've been digitally removed but he had to do all the time. The final scene where the UFO attacks Washington D.C. is one of the most memorable scene in science-fiction cinema
although no remakes has been made but there's two movies both made in 1996 that shared familiar plots the first one is Mars Attack by Tim Burton it's more of a monsters run em up film like Gremlins
a bunch of silly goofy alien come down and attacks they even mocks the washington scene in Earth vs. the Flying Saucers it had an all-star cast Jack Nicholson, Danny Devito (whom the both work in in Tim Burton's Batman films) Glenn Close, Annette Bennning, and a young Natalie Portman. But the big one is Independence Day
even though not a remake but it the closes thing the scene where the martians attack the white house
is a memorable scene, it was also a in a line string of summer movies starring Will Smith. The Aliens look great
not original but good anyway it just a dumb summer movie and if your is many about how we fought for our freedom lot of people complain it @$$ but if you want something more than the meaning of life your not gonna get but it shows that you can take an old idea and turn it new and that doesn't mean it's a remake.
