Synopsis:

In 1953 the war began: Martian Invaders bent on the conquest of Earth destroy human civilization and leave death and panic in their wake. If not for our planet's tinniest bacteria they would have wiped out human existence from the Earth. Captured and quarantined the aliens' threats are all but forgotten their insidious plans lay dormant for decades. But now freed from captivity revived and resuscitated they vow not to repeat their mistakes. And if not for a small band of human resistance fighters they may yet get the chance to finish what they started...Here for the first time on DVD War of the Wolds: Complete Series continues the story of alien attack human defiance and interplanetary war in this 11-disc box set. Let the battle begin.

At the end of the 1953 film "War of the World", earth is saved from alien invaders when they are apparently killed by common bacteria. However, what if the aliens weren't really dead? In "War of the Worlds" the aliens from the 1953 invasion are brought out of suspended animation when radiation kills the infecting bacteria. Now the aliens launch a genocidal war against an unsuspecting Earth, using their ability to take over human bodies to allow them to move freely. Dr. Harrison Blackwood teams up with microbiologist Suzanne McCullough, computer programmer Norton Drake, and army Lt. Colonel Paul Ironhorse to save the world from this alien menace. In the second season, Harrison and Suzanne are joined by mercenary John Kincaid, who help them fight in a post-apocalyptic urban wasteland against a second wave of invaders dedicated to the death of all life on earth.

Humanity must resume its war against the Martians after they revive after decades of hibernation after their defeat in the 1950's.
