Entertainment Film & Movies The Angry Red Planet (also called Invasion of Mars and Journey to Planet Four) is a 1959 American science fiction film directed by Ib Melchior and starring Gerald Mohr.[1][2] Melchior reportedly had an initial production budget of only $200 000 and was given just nine days to film it.[3] Such financial and time constraints necessitated the use of "CineMagic" a film-processing technique that combined hand-drawn animations with live-action footage. The relatively inexpensive process was used for all scenes depicting the surface of Mars. While CineMagic proved unsatisfactory for creating visually believable special effects for The Angry Red Planet producer Norman Maurer did reuse the process in 1962 although to a lesser extent in the comedy film The Three Stooges in Orbit.[4]
