One of the most famous real-life UFO abduction cases on record becomes this character-driven
drama from
sci-fi screenwriter
Tracy Torme.
D.B. Sweeney stars as
Travis Walton, a forestry worker who disappears one night during an encounter with a flying saucer. Authorities treat with skepticism the outrageous story related by the only witnesses to the event,
Travis' five co-workers, who include his best friend and future brother-in-law,
Mike Rogers (
Robert Patrick). A state lawman (
James Garner) finds a tabloid newspaper in the crew's pickup truck and quickly ascertains that tensions had arisen between
Walton and a surly fellow logger (
Craig Sheffer), leading him to conclude that a murder cover-up is underway. However, all of the men pass lie detector tests and the case becomes stalled until the shocking last-minute reappearance of
Travis, who tells a literally fantastic story involving his whereabouts for the past week.
