Directed By John Carpenter ⋅ United States ⋅ 83 min
In director John Carpenter’s debut film, space explorers meet a very strange alien shaped like a beach ball, who causes no small amount of mischief aboard their vessel. Years before his alien horror masterpiece THE THING, film student Carpenter directed this creepy and comedic space oddity, with writing help from Dan O’Bannon, who later used elements of the story in his script for ALIEN. Roger Ebert called it “one of the damnedest science fiction movies I've ever seen, a berserk combination of space opera, intelligent bombs, and beach balls from other worlds.”
Cast: Brian Narelle, Cal Kuniholm, Dre Pahich
