It appears the old saying that “no publicity is bad publicity” still stands true today. The proof of that comes from the new release film on Amazon Prime Video’s streaming platform, War of the Worlds.

*Billed as $4.00 plus GST every four weeks. After 24 weeks, price increases to the regular rate of $19.00 plus GST every four weeks. Offer available to new and qualified returning subscribers only.

It may be the medium that held War of the Worlds back; it would be more compelling as a game rather than a film.
