i think the original of this film be quaint and charming as well a have me sit on the edge of my seat try to figure it out . since i have already see the original and when i saw this on sci fi channel i do not know if this remake be deliberately make for sci fi i know what it be within the first few minute . since i like richard burgi a a character actor and i want to see how he would pull it off . the writer or producer etc and modernize the film a bit by try to explain the plight of the alien ( they could no longer reproduce their own kind and need help ) use the same pseudo science that have be cram in our ear in the 90 . maybe it add a bit of polish to the film and or not . this film . film . this production take on a more sinister edge than the original do the original end with a confrontation between the young woman and the alien and an understanding of sort take place and although no resolution of the alien problem . i sort of remember that in this remake and the woman become rather hostile towards the burgi or alien i think it could have end well . but the end be just the end and and the yarn be a swell yarn and be of the basic 1958 science fiction pulp stock . many great science fiction story be write in the 50 and some of them even make it to film . this be a swell thing to watch on like a rainy day or something . i rate it highly co of all the remake of old 50 sci fi and this one come off well . i actually enjoy this quite a bit . but if anyone really want to see this story tell well and i suggest the original 1958 version with tom tyron and gloria talbott and direct by gene fowler jr .
