I always loved this movie, even though I don't believe in little gray men. This is another lost gem, that ought to be on DVD by now. But I suspect there's a reason it isn't, beside just profit. Starman stole its idea of a huge silver mothership, showing up to rescue the stranded travelers. The military is portrayed fairly accurately, if not unflatteringly so. Perhaps another reason this movie has gotten snubbed.
This movie is so hard to find but is one of my most favorite sci-fi movies. The way it was filmed it just seems so real. I may have forgotten other good sci-fi over the years but this always stuck with me. It really should have gotten more attention than it did.
@mrjollyrich76 Yes the events where true Henri Deacon said this movie is based on an event that happened to him. The whole Camelot team has confirmed it.
And don't tell me Chris Carter did'nt watch this a few time before he came up with THE X-FILES....Would've loved to have seen Cherie as a fellow FBI Agent to Mulder & Scully or as the CSM's little stooges !
it's an awesome movie about a couple who befriend and assist a few aliens escape the US gov. Without telling too much they find out exactly what these childlike aliens are like intellectually and what they can do with their minds alone.
Love the part in the church!!

Some of the music in this film sounds like it was re-used from "Tatort."

It very likely was. Tangerine Dream were (are) very much in the habit of recycling their music.

@MrPhukyou You ain't kidding. I managed to bag a copy on Laserdisc. It took quite a while to find it but it was worth it.

This movie is based on true events. If you dont believe me do some research.
mrjollyrich76 2 years ago 26
you don't know that its based on true events, your basing that on what camelot have said, there may be truth to it but we have no way of knowing that

@mrjollyrich76 Has it been confirmed by anyone other than 'Henry Deacon', though?
P.S. This doesn't mean I question HD.

I wish this movie were available on DVD. My VHS copy is getting older.......
Starman's spaceship was fashioned after the spaceship in this movie. Tangerine Dreams music is fantastic.

The sequence that appears at 3:10 cames from "The Soldier" and is a hyper-berlin-school moment. Superb !
