lazee4163 I remember watching this at the tender age of 12 and it scared the hell out of me. The scene with the faceless telephone repair men, and the seen where the half alien have human boy lures the young girls through the woods makes my blood run cold to this very day. The moment where he turns around gave me nightmares for weeks. There are many good Alien Abduction films out there like Communion, Fire In The Sky, The Forth Kind, and Altered just to name a few, but Intruders is the best of the genre in my humble opinion. If you can't find it on DVD it is usually available to stream for free on Youtube. I can't recommend Intruder enough. It is straight nightmare fuel.

Leofwine_draca INTRUDERS is a pretty good exploration of the alien abduction phenomenon, based on a book by real-life abductee Budd Hopkins. As a three hour TV movie it holds the attention throughout, boasting an excellent turn from Richard Crenna as a psychiatrist who gets drawn into the unusual reports from one of his patients and ends up leading a crusade against government cover-ups.The only real negative thing about INTRUDERS is that it was made in the 1990s, where all such TV movies inevitably look cheap and ramshackle to modern audiences. Indeed, there's an often cheap and cheesy look and feel to the production, which saps the realism. But there are also many reasons to tune in, as this is a drama that narrowly predates THE X-FILES and handles an outlandish subject matter in a surprisingly mature way.The film is also rather frightening for its time, focusing extensively on the abduction scenes; there are lots of nightmarish moments involving the "Greys" here, and the spooky atmosphere is understandable when you find out that Dan Curtis (proponent of many a 1970s TV horror flick) is the guy who directed it. Crenna was always an underrated actor and I can't help but feel this might be one of his greatest late stage performances.

AaronCapenBanner Dan Curtis directed this TV movie based on the book by Budd Hopkins that stars Richard Crenna as Dr. Neil Chase(based on real-life Dr. John Mack) who becomes involved in regression hypnosis involving two women(played by Daphne Ashbrook and Mare Winningham) who are troubled by nightmares and blackouts that seem to be the work of aliens who abduct them for medical experiments involving harvested DNA to create a half-human/alien hybrid for unknown reasons. The military knows about it, but is determined to cover it all up, and Dr. Chase finds that his career and reputation are on the line, but these two women still need his help... Marginal film has a fine cast(especially the sturdy Crenna) but goes on far too long, dissipating any dramatic impact."The X-Files" would perfect this subject matter when it premiered a year later...

JazzySOB This is one of the best stories based on true experiences from people all over the world about UFO's and abductions which is made into a movie. Good book from the initial author Budd Hopkins who is a specialist about the subject. It is in line with other movies like "A Fire In The Sky" from Travis Walton and "Communion" from the author Whitley Strieber which are also based on true stories. Luckily the filmmakers did have hired good actors. Richard Crenna and Mare Winningham are very persuasive. A must see for everyone who have interest into the subject. I would like to buy this film on DVD (widescreen if possible), but unfortunately it is still not available on DVD.
