Following a series of meteor impacts across Southern England arranged in a precise pattern, scientist Temple, portrayed by Robert Hutton, feels compelled to look into the situation. However, his medical advisors are preventing him from doing so, which means Mason, played by Jennifer Jayne, must take charge of the investigation. Shortly after arriving at the site, it becomes apparent that something isn't right. Requests for costly equipment begin appearing, people’s behavior grows strange, and eventually Temple decides he needs to be present to understand what is taking place. There’s not much suspense because from the beginning you know exactly what’s happening; essentially, we are observing a curious scientist as he pursues clues – all the way to the moon and an encounter with Michael Gough sporting a cape that glitters. It's obvious this was made on a very limited budget, and while there is some attempt to film outdoors, much of it takes place on a set, which brought to mind the Peter Cushing "Dr. Who" episodes from the early 1960s. Aside from some flashlights modified to resemble ray guns and an ingeniously repurposed colander used to ward off beams that mess with your mind, there aren't really any special effects. After about sixty minutes, I found myself quite bored. Numerous inexpensive science-fiction films were being released in Hollywood at the time, and this one isn’t significantly worse than those, but as an action or adventure movie, it doesn’t measure up.
