    • Trivia
      At one point, William Shatner is seen alone, peering through an airplane window into the night. The shot recreates many similar scenes from Shatner's manic performance in the legendary Nightmare at 20,000 Feet (1963) of the original Twilight Zone services.
    • Goofs
      The airliner on take off is not a 747 but a T-Tail design airliner.

    For William Shatner And Roy Thinnes Fans
    Disaster movie meets horror movie as supernatural events happen on a passenger plane.

    This might be just a TV movie but this is more fun than Airport 1975 and Airport 79 put together!

    1960s sci-fi stars William Shatner (Star Trek) and Roy Thinnes (QM's The Invaders) dealing with more out-of-this-world dangers in the early 1970s, that is what draws me to this movie.

    But if you don't view the film that way, well, you might not get such a blast out of it. The horror element is very mild, in fact the first 30 or 40 minutes of the flick are more about the quirks of the passengers and crew of the plane...not much horror.

    Produced by Anthony Wilson who was the story editor for all 83 episodes of Lost In Space.

    I just found this long lost gem of a movie on YouTube with a surprisingly good print. I hope others enjoy it on YouTube, if it does not get taken down.
