There is a bit of " Being There" in this flick as the people around our visitor make many assumptions about him. It is well worth watching just for the old Alpha and the Euro-style shades , but also consider it for a double -bill with the first Terminator or Without Warning.Or if you want to consider other Italian Science Fiction films and see how much can be done with a low-budget try watching Planet of the Vampires which has some of the best futuristic spaceship interiors I've ever seen despite the fact that they look like they were all done out of plywood. Or consider that it could have been picked for the prototype of Alphaville had history been a little different.
