Synopsis |
Coming out in the same year as Star Wars, it didn't get as much exposure as it might have done if it was shown in a different year. When things such as ships turning up in deserts and a U.F.O. is
reported by air traffic control, things take a turn for the good or worse. Alien spaceships are spotted by Roy one night as he goes to investigate a powercut. He begins a sort of downward spiral,
including building a big devils mountain out of mash potato then mud. He manages to identify the mountain and with his wife goes off to investigate. The military put an exclusion zone right round the
area saying there's a poisonous gas killing people and they need to evacuate. Unpreterbed, they venture closer to the mountain and discover it is where the Military are planning on communicating with
the alien ships. You only get a brief look of what the aliens look like but it is sufficient to discover they look like the typical alien, long thin legs, a big head and white or grey. If you want to know what
they different types of Close Encounters are, visit my Encountering Aliens page. The name for aliens 'Closians' are just made up
for this website so that they can be referred to easily.
