The Invaders From Space Trailer is Action-Packed

— November 10, 2011 — Pop Culture
In 1978, one of the earliest shooting arcade games title Space Invaders was created by Taito, and now fans have remade this iconic video game, as seen with the Invaders From Space trailer.

Space Invaders is now a pop culture icon, and has been seen in many television series and movies, including That '70s Show.

Invaders From Space is a fan short film made by Thomas Lesourd, because he wanted to see an actual onscreen war with 2D alien invaders. Instead of being a comedy, much of the space invaders references in the movie will be serious. Ultimately, Invaders From Space is about a terrible war with humans in danger from extraterrestrial enemies.

The film was shot in August 2011 by the team, and now the project is in post production to be released on the web in 2012. Check out the Invaders From Space trailer to get a sense of what this film is all about.
