Plot / Review –
A supernatural Alien lands in modern day Los Angeles and begins killing random citizens after night fall. The creatures first victim is Shelly Warner (daughter of William Devanes character Roy Warner). Recently released from prison, Warner teams with local reporter Zoey Owens (Crosby) to hunt down and destroy the creature. Jacquelyn Hyde plays a psychic who claims to see visions of the creatures next attack. Richard Jaeckel performs well as an overworked, disgruntled detective who is also on the killers trail. John Bloom at 7’4″ is very imposing as the Alien creature, and has a tremendous presence when seen in the film.
This movie is generally given a low rating, however it certainly has its strong moments and is a must see for true sci-fi / horror fans.
Company: Film Ventures International (FVI).
