About this event

From director “Michael J. Paradise” (not his real name), The Visitor is a beautiful and baffling sci-fi horror mash up of The Omen, Rosemary’s Baby and Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Posing as a kindly babysitter, mysterious cosmic entity Jerzy Colsowicz travels to Earth in search of foul mouthed eight year old Katy Collins, the only living descendant of the evil alien mutant Zatine. Their battle of wills may determine the fate of humanity, and even the universe!

Perhaps the best film to earn a 5.2 average rating on IMDb, The Visitor is what you get when you mix heavy handed Christian allegory with a total disregard for narrative coherence and hundreds of real pigeons.

“A genuinely stupefying experience…the Mount Everest of insane ‘70s Italian movies.” - Mondo Digital
