The Great Martian War: CGI Martians Invade WWI Footage

This video clip will make you believe that the Martians invaded during WWI. It is that good. Of course we all know that that never happened. Last year the History channel aired a mockumentary about the “Great Martian War” of 1913-1917. The videos of the battles are the best part, which places War of the Worlds type aliens in real footage from World War I.

Directed by Christian Johnson and Steve Maher. This is a fun take on alternate history.
