The Visitor

HorrorSci-Fi109 min

An ancient intergalactic warrior comes to Earth to stop an 8-year-old girl whose telekinetic gifts place her at the center of a cosmic struggle over Satan’s next generation. Mel Ferrer anchors the adult side of the conflict, and John Huston turns up as the movie shifts between occult prophecy, psychic confrontations, and attacks involving the girl’s pet hawk. The setup mixes apocalyptic horror with space-age imagery, then drops it into ordinary places like school gyms and basketball courts, giving the battle between heavenly and demonic forces an off-kilter shape.
