　　约翰．卡彭特导演的这部科幻片并没有强调特技噱头，反而将重心放在异乡人的主题上，而且拍出了相当浪漫动人的气氛，甚至可以将它当作一部取外星人为主角的文艺片来欣赏。杰夫．布里奇斯饰演一名纯真的外星人，他的宇宙飞船被地救人击落，掉在威斯康辛州的荒野。他负伤来到新近丧偶的寡妇凯伦艾的家中，并且借用她丈夫的身体来延续生命。在学习地球人的生活方式过程中，他跟寡妇发生了感情。外星人的救援队将在三天后到达亚历桑纳州接他回外层空间，他需要寡妇开车送他到那里。地球上的两位政府官员也接获讯息，他们决定不管生死都要捉住外星人，因而引发了一场精彩的拉锯战。

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
