To all the people that slam-dunked this film, I guess I don't know what you expected. If you watched this expecting a top-notch sci-fi film, then you went into this with the wrong attitude. This film is basically a couple... Full review

Three or four years after Close Encounters of the Third Kind, this low-budget sci fi movie takes the worst of the 1950s and 1960s, adds some of the special effects of Close Encounters and creates an unbelievable, poorly made movie... Full review
