Ok, well, maybe it was! But don't be too hard on Mark Paul Gosselaar! He didn't do that bad of a job. I actually rented the movie because of him. I guess you would have to be a fan of his to enjoy the movie. It really dosen't make any sense. So, if you think he is cute, get it. I guess I am one of those people who actually liked Saved By The Bell. I like him as Zack better.

I've seen this film and its not great,but not terrible. Mark-Paul did a good job as the alien. I liked the film and would like to see it again. I was wondering about it and couldn't remember the title,and then I looked it up. I also know other people who enjoyed the film. Granted, I respect other people's opinion's I don't think it deserved the trashing that the Joe guy gave it, It was actually not that terrible!

That was an hour and a half that I'll never get back. By the way, for a small town, that's one huge community centre. I was confused whether it was a school or community centre or a combination of both. Don't those kids belong in school?

This movie tried to be a combination of The Terminator, Firestarter and Starman, but woefully fell short of the level of intensity.

If you have nothing better to watch, or do, then sit back and watch, but don't expect to be thrilled. There's a reason this movie went straight to video. Mark-Paul must have been short of cash, because this role was beneath his talent.

I wouldn't buy this movie; it simply isn't worth the money. However, if you're a fan of the actor or the genre, or have a penchant for cheesy movies, check it out when it comes on Sci-Fi.

The overall premise of the movie is bad, but it is poorly executed. In particular, the young boy saying "Eleven" all the time makes little sense. I assume he's supposed to be another hybrid, but then why don't the aliens want him? Too young?

BTW, I would be extremely gratified if someone could tell me the name of the theme song. It's running rampant through my head, and it won't settle down till I give it a name. :)

Young Mike Hillary dreams of fire which kills his mother. He starts sleeping in a bath even as a young man (Mark-Paul Gosselaar). He returns to his mother's home town and uncovers his secret origins with his superpower.

This is a mashup of various sci-fi premises. There is Firestarter, an X-Men, a Terminator, and a Close Encounter. All in all, it's a B-movie. It's not terrible. It tries but it doesn't have it.
