The standard Government cover-up of UFOs. If we knew about it too soon, it would sway the presidential elections. Part of the containment is to discredit two astronauts, Steve Bancroft, Lew Price (Gary Collins, James Hampton), who witnessed the object. If they cannot be discredited, they need to be contained. If not contained, then? What is worse is that it seems that Lew has a real flair for adventure.
Standard conspiracy and obligatory auto chase. They tried to toss in the Great Pyramid theory after it was figured out that people built it and left debris and work records. It sort of puts a damper on the story. Oh no, what about the missing link and where next?
The fun thing is looking at all the old technology of the eighties (some of it was old then). A side benefit is a rather good picture of Big Spring, Texas, where the movie was made. The movie is a good vehicle for TV actors of the time. Putting this film in a time frame, the movie “Capricorn One” was made three years earlier. You need to watch this for cultural literacy, but it has lost the original flair and suspense of the time it was made.
