Review:
This flick is actually a lot less frightening than it looks, yet it seems more realistically like an alien contact may occur. Christopher plays the victim of the sightings. His family and friends are annoyed when bright lights infiltrate their cottage. Walken gets the worst of it though as people have a hard time believing him and it drives a rift between his wife and he. The aliens are finished with Walken though as they pay more visits to him driving him even loonier. It surely was interesting but it does drag a bit and read more like a drama rather than something thrilling and frightening which I'd hoped for. Still for UFO fans this is a must view!
