Talk about buried treasures. This film, shot in 1980 when Cindy Williams was still a TV star on Laverne and Shirley, didn't actually reach theaters until 1985. Even then, it was barely released and remains a film more talked-about than seen. But it's a tidy little comic treat, starring Williams as a seeker in a small town who believes that she is destined to be taken away by a flying saucer. Which makes her seemingly easy pickings for a pair of dueling evangelists (including the ever-reliable Harry Dean Stanton)--but she's more intuitive than she seems, even to her long-suffering boyfriend, played with wonderfully gruff spirit by Fred Ward. This is one of those movies filled with unexpectedly funny moments while never quite going where you think it will. --Marshall Fine

4.0 out of 5 stars Guilty Pleasure, June 27, 2003

James D. Long (Springdale, AR USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Uforia [VHS] (VHS Tape)
UFORIA is one of those movies that begs the question, "Why didn't this film make it?" I hope they track down the principal cast and crew members so they can release a Special Edition DVD of this fine, forgotten film. It's full of colorful performances and vivid local flavor, all wrapped up in a tidy comedic plot. Fred Ward is wonderful as the scruffy redneck Waylon Jennings wannabe and Cindy Williams is actually kind of endearing as his love interest. I recommend UFORIA highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Close to "Repo Man" in sheer insane profundity, February 17, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Uforia [VHS] (VHS Tape)
A notch below "Repo Man," but still a major hoot. It stars Harry Dean Stanton, which automatically puts it in my top 20. Cindy Williams is perfect as the True Believer, and the rest of the cast is uniformly excellent. It has the same quirky, nothing-is-quite-what-it-seems quality as "Repo Man." I saw it at the Little Theater in Rochester, NY, and liked it well enough to spend $70 on the VHS. I've watched it 15 times since and never regretted buying it. It's hard to find, so buy it now!
