(Nix.  There is NO good movie adaptation.  When I was a child, a local radio station did a re-broadcast of the original radio show on it's 40th anniversary.  I listened to it in my room with the lights off on a cliche "dark and stormy night".  In my mind I could picture everything.  "Oh my God, it was the most fantastic and realistic presentation of a story I have ever heard.  Nothing can top that.  Nothing.  Scared the crap out of me at times. A movie will really have to go some to beat that experience for me.  I can see why people were killing themselves over it.  With only two disclaimers, everyone thought it was a real news broadcast.

For the record, I will not watch anything with Tom Cruise in it. I cannot STAND him. He makes my skin crawl.)

(Yes, new thread.)
