just pitching in to give praise to <i>Quartermass and the Pit</i>, one of my favorite scifi movies. I also got to see the original black & white TV version, almost identical to the movie but with a few more scenes and lesser special FX. it was also made into a play, I read somewhere.<br /><br />sorry I cant help with the nameless movie mystery. I have a few nameless scifi/horror movies I'd like to rediscover too. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><font color="#993366"><em>The only laws of matter are those which our minds must fabricate, and the only laws of mind are fabricated for it by matter.</em> <br /> --- James Clerk Maxwell</font></p> </div>

Hey, I remember Moona Lisa! She was actually a newscaster on a local station in San Diego; I remember being floored when I found out that this reporter was the same person as my favorite character on Saturday TV at 4:00pm! If it was really scary, I hid behind the sofa.

It's the closest so far, but I don't think so. I'm going to check it out though. It sounds good.

do you have any more clues? I'm temporarily subscribed to the IMDB advanced search engine, which produced a handful of movie titles from my childhood memories after some digging. if you give me more keywords, approximate dates, plot elements, etc. I could try some more. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p><font color="#993366"><em>The only laws of matter are those which our minds must fabricate, and the only laws of mind are fabricated for it by matter.</em> <br /> --- James Clerk Maxwell</font></p> </div>

Not much that I remember. Movie was black and white. I think the house was on a cliff when the spaceship picked it up. I remember a man and a lady. Maybe a third person. In the ship were many boxes on the walls that looked like post office boxes. I also remember the people finding a "tool" that opened the boxes. Some of the items were survival needs. It's been a long time so I don't remember more.

I think you can input "David Soul" in the search bar at Internet Movie Database (great site!!) and get a list of all the movies he has been in.<br /><br />There can't be that many.<br /><br />Then just look through the results for the one you want.<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>
