Uhm. The original was actually a novel by H.G. Wells. And it was adapted into a movie in the fifties or sixties.

My bad, the book came out in 1898 but the radio play is much more famous. It was broadcast on Oct. 30, 1938. Much of America was shitting itself because they thought that it was a real news broadcast.
