I saw a sci-fi movie on tv back in the 70’s and a couple of scenes have stuck with me through the years. The movie was in color and everyone spoke English.
The first scene I remember is of a man in his home retrieving a small box he had hidden. He seems to be sweating or nervous or otherwise unwell. When he opens the lid of the box there’s a green light shining out of it. He basks in the light and the man is revived as if the light were a medication he needed.
The second scene I remember is of a young boy finding the box and opening it. The green light burns him and I believe it’s later revealed to be a severe radiation burn.
I also seem to remember something about aliens and a dam but that could easily be a different movie. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
“The Aliens are Coming” (1980 TV movie)?
DOOD! You did it! This is totally the movie I remember. I did a quick image search based on the title and immediately recognized one of the actors. Now I just need to look for the movie.
Thank you!
Thank you! I found the movie on YouTube. It’s available in 7 different parts and as a whole. I posted it below and I think the scene you remember is about 55 minutes in.
