Target Earth - 1954 - 5/10

Alien robots invade deserted New York City.
How did New Yorkers know about the imminent invasion? How did they flee so completely? Where did they go?
Silly me. A handful of Manhattanites abide. Alcoholics, suicide types, killers. Yay humanity.
The pace drags, the story ain’t much. Run and / or get zapped by beams.
Our formidable aliens resemble robots that kids made out of cardboard refrigerator boxes (with codpiece).
At one point the military want to nuke Gotham. They should have bombed this film instead.
