When Elizabeth Driscoll (Brooke Adams) complains about her partner being strangely distant of late, her colleague Matthew Bennell (Donald Sutherland) assumes it’s just a question of relationship advice.

Following a series of shocking discoveries, Driscoll and Bennell are left fleeing for their lives – unsure of who they can trust, and pursued by the sound of ear-piercing alien screams…
