What terrifying message does an alien from outer space want to deliver to humanity? When a UFO lands in Washington, D. C., it's immediately surrounded by the military. A nervous soldier shoots the silver suited and helmeted vistor who emerges from the alien spacecraft. Chaos immediately insues, and the alien escapes. Fortunately the humanoid alien finds refuge with a caring widow and her son who eventually stumble upon his secret. Then it becomes a race to safely get him back to his spacecraft so that he can complete his mission and deliver a startling message to humanity.
