    Where to Watch

Thriller about the Government's attempt to cover up an alien landing. Darren McGavin, Robert Vaughn, Gary Collins. Lew: James Hampton. Frank: Philip Abbott. Lafferty: Joseph Campanella. Directed by James L. Conway.

Yes, the folks that presented the awful big-screen "documentaries" IN SEARCH OF NOAH'S ARK and IN SEARCH OF HISTORIC JESUS, Sunn Classic Pictures, attempted to present a straightforward, dramatic science-fiction film here, with predictable results. Forbes (Darren McGavin) is the leader of a group of scientists studying a flying saucer that is being hidden by the US government; Gordon (Robert Vaughn) is the slimy, paranoid politician who keeps the lid on this discovery at any cost. Not much of interest here.
