'Alien Nation' (1988) - Graham Baker.


Graham Baker's inventive 80s cop drama 'Alien Nation' strikingly remains an engaging admixture of 48 hrs and The Outer Limits. The memorable performances, Rockne S. O'Bannon's lively text and, Baker's zippy direction give this eminently watchable Sci-actioner a little more depth than one might expect.
