Originally posted by Belial I got about halfway through it before I had to leave for school. If I hadn't heard the beginning part that introduced them as a theatrical group at the beginning, I'd have probably been creeped out too at the time. The only tell is how quickly things occur. They'll interview someone, 2 minutes later they're dead, another 2 or 3 minutes later there are reports from the hospital. Even our ambulances aren't that fast these days.

I remember hearing about that in high school. How one guy even killed himself because he was so scared. Epic FAIL for him. Epic success for Mr. Wells. |

That's awesome. The next time I see my grandmother-in--law I'm going to ask her if she remembers it. I listened to the whole broadcast... and my husband walked in and got freaked out, like he did the movie. lol |

Aside from the LHC, I'm waiting for the next entertainment medium outburst to hit our society. If The Happening had been better, it could have been the thing to do it for our society. Having trees kill us. |

...Orson Wells did the notorious "War of the Worlds" broadcast.
Much like our recent panic over the LHC possibly causing a blackhole that would voraciously suck Earth into its depths, the broadcast caused wide-spread panic--with people believing the planet had been invaded by Martians.
