The Galaxy Invader (1985)

An American science fiction by Don Dohler.
An alien lands on Earth and is hunted by a gang of rednecks who want to sell it. A teacher and one of his former students enlist the help of the daughter of one of the rednecks to save the alien from them.
This was definitely unique. I liked the vague and muddy plot because I feel that it accurately portrays how a lone alien would be treated on his visit to our planet. The soundtrack was also not too shabby, with stylized synthesizer music in a classic science fiction type theme. What was bad was the acting, editing and general production value. It looked like some dude filmed it on a camcorder with the help of his friends and neighbors. This is a prime example of a good idea with poor presentation. I'll rate it o.k. for the above stated reasons. You may want to watch it if you're really into independent films.
