COMMUNION

Phillipe Mora, USA, 1989, Shout! Factory, Sci-Fi

“Even before the anal probing, he's nuts. From his first breath, he's out of his mind. His approach appears to be mostly ad-libbing. It's a combination of the Jeff Goldblum cadence with a touch of William Shatner's Shakespearean stagger. It works here.” - Scumbalina, Letterboxd

One of the wildest performances in the Christopher Walken canon, and that’s really saying something! COMMUNION director Phillipe Mora (THE HOWLING II and III) explodes UFO guru Whitley Strieber’s foundational text into a very watchable SNL parody-type version, perhaps unintentionally but does it really matter? Here, Walken struts, dances and makes a mockery of our plane of existence and IT’S BEAUTIFUL. You will never, ever get the image of him beaming and cavorting with the little grey alien things out of your mind.
