Who knows?  I imagine I mentioned FLASH GORDON, since I was trotting out every possibility I could think of.  But this was approximately 42 years ago so I can't swear to it.  I do know that he insisted it was a movie called WAR OF THE WORLDS and that he insisted it was from the Wells' story.  Clearly he was wrong, but what he was mistakenly referring to...?  I can't say.
