Taken with the spirit of 'The 50 Foot Woman' or Twilight Zone episodes with string holding up the flying saucers it's watchable. Gard isn't a funny drunk like Burt Reynolds in Smokey And The Bandit and it's mostly ho hum he had a bottle hid there?????? Yawn. Bandit made it believable at least.
Sci/Fi has given us so many wonderful inventions like Independence Day where they created WiFi which just happened to match the invaders computers although none of the other technology was the same. And the Tommyknockers had mind control headsets to operate their ship. Never mind that the aliens heads were very long and the probes would penetrate the brain at it's top.......just luck that the harness was custom made for Gard.
How they could have handled Bobby physically changing is not really explored but the last time Gard jumped her bones he noticed in the book there were things like fingers growing down there...........finally he figures out this isn't really her he's with.
They could have used cops with an IQ above room temperature when the kid vanished. Standing on a solid wood box,no hole in the tablecloth,solid brick foundation wall behind and no hole in the ground but Ruth never figures out he couldn't have gotten past a yard full of people but give Hilly the Penn & Teller 'Fool Us' trophy and lets go search the swamp and everywhere except around the UFO. But they also never searched the barn so all was consistent.
Not a bad way to kill an evening unless you're expecting an epic documentary on aliens and science.
