罗伯特．怀斯导演的一部具有悬疑性的科幻片，描述美国一枚太空舱堕落墨西哥荒郊小镇上，导致镇民全部离奇死亡，仅剩一老一少受重伤未死。特别营救小组将他们救回实验室研究其病况，最终发现其中奥妙。
本片制作相当认真，气氛和映象亦有部分的杰出表现。但整体来说太过沉缓，描述科学家如何研究细胞分裂的过程也太详细了。

Barbie Hallem is a bored rich girl, who drinks too much, parties too much and flirts outrageously with any man she meets. And there's no reason to think she stops at flirting, even though she has a boyfriend. But her boyfriend is a drip. He won't punch out a guy when he sees her kissing him. The dullard even tries to take her home when she gets drunk at a party. What she wants to do is go up to the mountains and stay at the cabin her uncle left to her. The boyfriend tries to tag along, but she manages to abandon him at the side of the road. Before the night is over, she'll wish desperately she had just gone home.

This turns out to be the first of a number of critical family crises for Ben.

African Elephant originally played in theatres as King Elephant.. The film is a straightforward, well-photographed documentary concentrating on....well, look at the title. Avoiding the obvious, filmmaker Simon Trevor focuses on the more curious aspects of elephant life. In addition to the mighty pachyderm, we are given intriguing glimpses of other forms of African wildlife. African Elephant has no overt ecological ax to grind, but the preservationist message is there by implication.
