Unfortunately Ray never got to make this movie, I wish he did, this test footage is great.
This footage is in a documentry, 'The Harryhausen Chronicles', which is on almost every Harryhausen DVD. It's also available seperate on DVD with tons of bonus stuff.

Ok so I've read the book and it's pretty good who else has? (thumbs up)

@perlaand War of the Worlds was what started modern Alien Invasion films. But the original novel was much more than a story, it bore alot of HG Wells' politcal and social views on the world. The Whole story is one great big metaphore. In the end the significance of their technologies is nothing compared the message Wells tried to pass on, but it always makes for a good classic anyway.

@brenleyman Thats becuase he used the same face design from this martian for both the Ymir and the Kraken.
-
Anyone else think that the alien looks like the kraken from Clash of the Titans?
-
Without stop-motion like this,there would've been no CGI.
-
I'm wondering why sci-fic authors almost always describe aliens like beings able to build sophisticated technological tools, appearing destructive ugly prehistoric creatures unfit for the tools they supposedly designed. My guess is these authors must be freaky idiots.

Is the alien stoned?

The should have created this, and evolution. bother were graet sounding.

I've always wondered how stop motion animators get the eyes to move.

Wish this was made!
I do believe if it was made it would hav been one of the best Harryhausen films of all time!

Aside from all the bickering about CGI vs stop motion, I wish they had Ray do this. It definitely would've given the WotW it's charm and magic.
