Uforia Movie Review

Good ol’ boy Fred Ward meets up with a UFO-obsessed girl named Arlene (Cindy Williams). Their budding romance is threatened by Ward's friend, a crooked evangelist (Harry Dean Stanton) who sees Arlene's UFO-babble as a potential money-making scheme. Stanton intends to use Arlene's prophecies of impending extraterrestrial contact to bilk his revivalist audiences. The humor is sometimes clumsy, but works often enough to make for fun viewing. Versatile Fred Ward also played writer Henry Miller in Henry and June and fought killer worms in the two Tremors movies.
