Help! Barbara Eden is eating coffee grounds!

Being impregnated by an alien being could never be this much fun! Unless of course you are Barbara Eden in this fun flick made back in the early days of the Roe v. Wade decision. Babs has lots of weird symptoms and amusing cravings, leaving her hapless husband bewildered. It is slightly melodramic, but seeing as it is 25 years old, it still holds up well and keeps you interested all the way through, with very few special effects! It keeps its weirdness using only acting, setting, and music. If you can catch it on video or t.v. don't miss it!
