An entirely wretched film, its popularity has increased since being lampooned on '''"Mystery Science Theatre 3000"''' aka "MST3K". | '''Invasion USA''' is a 1952 drama that depicts an enemy invasion of the United States.

The enemy was never specifically identified in the film, but clearly meant to be Soviet forces (as the film was set during the height of the Cold War).
