ALL SCI-FI

Fascinating depiction of a documented occurrence concerning a married couple who, under hypnosis, related an alledged "close encounter of the third kind".

During the incident the couple claimed to have been taken aboard a spacecraft where they were given a detailed physical examination, parts of which were unpleasant and traumatic. Their seperate descriptions of the incident are similar to an impressive degree, and many UFO experts attribute a high degree of credibility to the report.

One of the most interesting things about the incident is that the couple claims to possess very little conscious memory of what happened to them. Only under hypnosis are they able to recall the events.

The couple first sought psychiatic treatment because they were disturbed by a gap in their memory of a long automobile trip. According to their hypnosis-induced account, the "lost" time during the trip was spent during their alien encounter. They also suffered terrible nightmares as a result of the experience.

James Earl Jones and Estelle Parsons are excellent in the starring rolls as the troubled and confused couple. The makeup for the small hairless humanoid aliens employs a clever trick to create over-sized, realistic eyes. Glass lenses were built into the alien masks, magnifying the actors' eyes. The effect is both strange and convincing

Directed by Richard A. Colla.
