I loved Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, but didn't consider it an Alien Invasion movie.

Tobe Hooper's Invaders From Mars remake is one of my favorites.

Strange Invaders was a fun flick too.

Day of the Triffids


Its funny that only the film made the Triffids space aliens.

Of films not mention - I love this one:

They Live

Invasion of the Saucer Men

Mars Attacks

The Day the Earth Stood Still (sorta counts)

Day of the Triffids
WARNING POSSIBLE SPOILERS

Were the triffids from another planet? I thought they were a home-grown species that saw their opportunity to do bad things when the majority of the human population went blind.

I LOVE this story; with all the crappy remakes out there, why can't they remake this movie with some REALLY SCARY triffids?

I forgot that the movie version of Day Of The Triffids said they were from space. I LOVE that story.

Totally forgot about They Live. Very underrated little film.

I saw Splinter quite a while ago. I love that freaky movie. Its amazing how effective it was. It dont know if it fits here but I thought I would mention it. If you havent seen it I think youll get a kick out of it.

I did see it.

I'm not sure if it was meant to be an alien or homegrown contagion, but it was pretty cool.http://hannahpoturalski.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/splinter.jpg

I remember that film. It was featured in the opening credits of Pod People, an alien invasion Mystery Science Theater classic:http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mVZ__QdOGQY/Reizu3smdXI/AAAAAAAAAU8/dJx4kecVvrU/s200/303Pod3.jpg

I quite liked that way that particularly the first half of Independence Day, the viewer is very unaware of the alien's real motives and such. I mean, for so long all we see of them is the enormous space ship. I felt that it captured the confusion that one would feel in such a situation quite well.

Yeah, I felt the same way. The film started off promising enough, but rapidly deteriorated. Pretty cool spaceship though.http://www.paranormalpeopleonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/independence-day.jpg
