A Spielberg remake of sci-fi classic “War of the Worlds” (1953) seemed like a bad idea, but the special effects were spectacular, especially the introductory scenes of the alien spacecrafts destroying a bridge, the “whirlpool-sphincters-of-the-gods,” & all. Though, the 9/11 parallels came off surprisingly exploitative, considering Spielberg’s penchant for sanctimoniousness. This one appeared in the UK’s Hotdog Magazine as well as free weekly The Montreal Mirror. Original print header: “Bring on the mayhem!”
