‘Looking Back on Mars Attacks!’ will follow commentaries by filmmakers who worked with Tim Burton on “one of the wackiest 90s alien invasion films”. While ‘Ack! Ack! Aesthetic’ takes a closer look at the distinctive creative style used to make Mars Attacks! and the then-cutting-edge CGI technology that shaped the movie’s overall look.
This Tim Burton movie combines its sci-fi themes with satire and dark comedy, associated with most of his films. The movie features Jack Nicholson, Annette Bening, Glenn Close, Danny DeVito, Michael J. Fox, Pierce Brosnan, and more.
Mars Attacks! is one of Burton’s cult classics, inspired by the trading card game of the same name. The movie focuses on Martian spacecraft that hover over major cities across the globe. The world leaders, including the U.S. President James Dale played by Jack Nicholson, initially assume that the Martians come in Peace. However, things unfold as the ulterior motives of the alien invasion are revealed.
