This reminds me of an American movie from the 1950s called Target Earth. In that one, a small group of survivors in an empty city hide in a building from alien robots slowing lumbering around outside killing anything that moves. It's basically the same premise here except it's in an English village not an American city. Also the alien robots here are slightly less corny looking. Just slightly though. Both movies also have the likable older couple and the one guy who is up to no good. Anyway this is an enjoyable movie if you go into it with the right frame of mind. It's a bit slow and talky but that doesn't have to mean boring. It's directed by legendary Hammer director Terence Fisher so you can expect quality. One final thing is that despite being a bit older Virginia Field is still a real beauty here. The camera's in love with her especially in the close-ups.
