This title is an acquisition.
Join actors from Star Trek as they recreate this classic radio thriller. The breathless pace and convincing details make it clear why the 1938 broadcast of an ""eyewitness report"" of an invasion from Mars caused a nationwide panic. Originally directed by Orson Welles, The War of the Worlds is an adaptation of H. G. Wells' novel of the same name.
