THE INVADER FILES.

Next stop: Oregon.

Super casting of veteran actor Ralph Bellamy (famous for playing FDR) as the owner of a factory who just happens to lease his building to one of the Invaders (Murray Hamilton). Hamilton was dynamic is these type of roles because he usually looked suspicious right off the bat.

David enters the strange case when Tate (Bellamy) suddenly realizes he's playing with fire, the fact that he discovers a tablet called "Command Roster One," listing crucial information about the Invaders. Tate is murdered and David very conveniently framed for the crime.

The proverbial question; How do you prove you were framed by aliens?

Talking Point. And I agree. The Invaders leaving incriminating evidence around is very unusual, considering they want to go unnoticed. Also the file was written in English. Should have been in their language. That way it would have been impossible to determine what the documents were.

Nevertheless, Bellamy and Hamilton turn in fine performances, and the reason to watch, likewise Marlyn Mason, playing Tate's daughter, also of interest to the Invaders. Mason is still working in films and tv to this day. Gary Walberg (QUINCY) plays a detective, a role that fit him to the letter.

Written by Robert Sherman, later co-producer of BARNABY JONES.

SEASON 1 EPISODE 17 remastered color dvd box set. Collectors first season edition.
