Viewing Notes

The worst movie with “flying saucer” in its name. so boring for most of the film until the finale, which may be the first time a bad guy was pushed into a small place propeller. Spielberg saw this movie as a kid and banked that scene to use in Raiders. He also made his own UFO mystery movie which this may have influenced so I can’t be mad at this movie. It’s just so boring.
