Mars, it seems, attacks!
Look! Up in the sky! It's a bird... It's a plane... It's... A post-Cuckoo's Nest Louise Fletcher?!
Invaders From Mars is the rare remake that actually might be just as good as the first movie. Both are a lot of fun, and both are worth a watch. But this quiz is about the 1986 movie. So keep that in mind as you peruse the questions, gather your answers, and see how you measure up.
As you look to the skies, be sure to share your thoughts and your score in the comments section below. Good luck!

At the film's end, the boy wakes up, it was all a dream, or was it? He awakens to the start of the invasion, as he had dreamed. This is probably my first exposure to this trope, and I found it creepy.
Which meant, as a kid, I watched the scariest parts from the hall, peeking from the door.
