Drafthouse Films is back with the theatrical re-release of
the 1979 horror/sci fi film The Visitor, opening today in select cities. This
film was entirely new to me and it seems, to a lot of other folks as well.
There was a VHS release and a now out-of-print DVD that’s selling on Amazon for
a hundred dollars or more. The Visitor is an Italian/American co-production, but
what makes its obscurity so strange is that it has a large cast of rather big
names. Appearing in the film is John Huston, Glenn Ford, Sam Peckinpah, Lance
Henrikson, and Shelley Winters.
