Communion (1989)

May 14, 2008

Director: Philippe Mora
Body Count: 0

Based on Whitley Streiber’s book by the same name, Communion charts Streiber’s alleged abduction by Aliens and the effects that it had on him and his family. Streiber, played by Christopher Walken, is abducted and researched by aliens from his country get away. He and his family must then cope with the psychological impact of the event. The movie looks a bit dated now; the aliens look more like they came out of Jim Henson’s puppet shop than like real creatures, and the abduction scenes are like Monty Python skits . . . Mony Python skits with Christopher Walken.

Abduction law:

1. Whitley’s wife says that the shrink should be trusted because she gives “evidence [that] is accepted in court.”
