Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Chris Farber was originally supposed to have the last name of Faber but Michael Ironside kept pronouncing Farber so they changed it. (This is why scripts and books will often have Faber rather than Farber). more
Goofs:
Continuity: Eleanor gives Steven a picture of her grandson, Sean so he can find him. Later, he passes that picture to someone else and it has changed sizes, it's bigger than the one she had originally given him. more
Quotes:
Chris Faber: I never thought of the Padre going AWOL. I always thought of him as a standup kind of guy.
Ham Tyler: You start believing in that "peace on earth and goodwill stuff," there's no telling how screwed up you'll be.

A cult classic, 22 June 1999
Author: Dar Star from San Francisco

While other folks were knee-deep in Star Wars and Star Trek, this was the movie that mesmerized me. The world taken over by Alien Nazis, pretty inventive. Looking back, it is obvious that this is a very high quality production not the ordinary made for TV drivel. With a great concept and terrific acting by Marc Singer, Faye Grant, and Michael Ironside, interest is held throughout the full 10 hours. Except for the phony ending, the entire saga is great. Special effects were also state of the art then. When I compare the laser blasts in Star Wars with V FB, no contest. V rules. PLEASE PUT THIS ON DVD.
