i can't seem to help myself: i confess to a compulsion for penning elaborate draft treatments of imagined sequels of my favorite all-time films. sure enough, i've done it for Forbidden Planet, Body Heat, and even The Thing, but in the case of Invaders from Mars (1953), my obsession hit an all-time high, actually getting all the way to a shooting script and even a short intro reel. drafting a handful cast of long-suffering friends, i was determined to re-master the Menzies sci-fi classic (son of rocket scientist staves off an army of giant green mutants) with my own, updated homage, picking up the original storyline thirty-some years later, where young David is now a middle-aged newspaper reporter dogged by (you guessed it) a terrible mounting suspicion and those "darn headaches". oh well - all trademark and copyright infringements aside, it was sure fun while it lasted...
