ah, Earth just intercepted their radio transmissions.

Actually, they weren't planning to invade earth. They were much too
enlightened for that.

And it starred the fellow who would later become Mission Impossible's
Mr. Phelps!

John Savard

Who also starred in a number of B-grade SF films of that era.

His brother was James Arness who retained a name closer to their real family
name. I enjoyed the work of both actors, RIP.

Arness was the alien in The Thing (from another world).

There was another pair of brothers in the acting business who did some SF
work that I liked: Rex and Rhodes Reason:
