Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for anyone who loves trying to stay one step ahead and people who love a story set somewhere strange. One to watch when you can give it your full attention. Same wavelength as Close Encounters of the Third Kind or The Day the Earth Stood Still.
The mood
Tense.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 12 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1974: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Colonel Pete Moore (Glenn Ford) is commander of the Whitney Radar Test Group, which has been experiencing electrical difficulties aboard its aircraft. To ferret out the problem, he sends a four-man crew on Flight 412. Shortly into the test, the jet picks up three blips on radar, and subsequently, two fighters scramble and mysteriously disappear. At this point, Flight 412 is monitored and forced to land by Digger Control, a top-level, military intelligence group that debunks UFO information. The intrepid colonel, kept in the dark about his crew, decides to investigate the matter himself.
