What they share

Both films are directed by Akira Miwa, Nagayoshi Akasaka, Teruo Ishii, and they sit in Action / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Attack from Space, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Invaders from Space is

You wake to Earth under a scarlet sky, salamanders from Kulimon unfurling their neon claws at your doorstep. Then Starman descends in a lime-green streak, plasma gun sparking. Ishii’s lenses bleed pulp neon across every frame of 1965’s neon-lit Tokyo.
