UFO: Target Earth

Occasionally there's some trippy psychedelic lights and images in place of plot a la 2001: A Space Odyssey; and that was kind of cool, but not cool enough. Did I mention that you don't see a single UFO? Not a one. I watched UFO: Target Earth on Youtube. It was dreadful. Here's a "Fears. Forms"-filled trailer:
