| | Notes | A very strange fish from a really good director. An alien in the 'guise' of a young black man appears on earth and has a number of 'adventures'. At the beginning he loses one of his feet and despite its growing back again he still limps. Throughout the film he doesn't talk but I don't think one can say he's speaking impaired. His lack of speech is more of a satirical device. The film has some interesting parts but most viewers I doubt will stay the course.
