Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film was produced by Sunn Classic Pictures, the leading "four-wall" distributor of documentaries. Although this was a straight science fiction film, Sunn's TV spots promoted it as if it were another of their documentaries that would "reveal the truth about UFOs" even though the space shuttle which was used in the film had not yet had its first launch.
- GoofsToward the end of the film, Lew and Steve (the heroes) are driving a gasoline truck, being chased by two government agents. Lew takes a signal flare and goes to the rear of the truck, dumping a large gasoline slick, shutting off the gas flow, then lighting the flare and throwing it on the slick, causing a fire that kills the two agents. The problem is, Lew throws the flare about three seconds after shutting off the gas. The truck is traveling at least fifty miles an hour... meaning that it would have put at least 200 feet between itself and the slick. Lew would have to throw the signal flare 70 yards, with perfect accuracy, for this trick to work. His throw clearly wouldn't carry the flare more than ten or twenty feet.
- Quotes
Frank Morrison: Well, as long as Hangar 18 exists, the problem exists.
- Alternate versionsAired on TV under the title "Invasion Force" with a different ending.

More Truth To It Than We May Know
I saw it when it first premiered on television, Gary Collins was at KPIX in SFO at the time, it was some morning show if I remember right. Several years later I bought the movies on std VHS, it cost 85 dollars then.
The design of the craft itself was just awesome, interestingly that design of the ship is rendered in the architecture of the Yavapai Apache police HQ to an extent. It landed just below the Cliff Castle Casino in Camp Verde Arizona, so to speak.
The website for the casino at one time had a shockwave flash of a shooting star which represents the UFO's lightning speed descent. And it is the Flag-Mother-Ship of all Indian Casino's in the nation.
I am the author of the political strategy that made Indian gaming possible in California. No public declaration to that fact has been made, but I am the author without question.
Well, back to the storyline. I wish there was a sequel to Hanger 18 which begins where it left off, now the remaining surviving scientists aboard the craft had better learn to fly it. The new twist being where to park it, so it can be studied further (If you recall the Designated Landing Areas), The scientists problem has been compounded twofold and must now keep it out of the hands of both the government as well as the aliens who flew it here. If you want to see backyard footage of the real thing flying over Sonora, Calif.
Please go to sonorasightings dot com. Its the multi-lighted one on the start page. What do you think? Doesn't that look like the same pulsating ship and plasma firings similar to the craft in the movie. I did a frame by frame analysis of the video...its all authentic coverage....some frames reveal the modular shape of the pilots tower bridge, other modules, and the square plates around the perimeter of the saucer...very few frames I might add, it was filmed at night and reviewed in presence of witnesses.
Hope its of interest, enough to demand an explanation from our government, how is it "they" can fly at will anywhere including restricted airspace without FAA beacons. And note the plasma or fusion technology modes and behaviors of these various craft.
Also the elections scenario of the movie is akin to the "Four More Years" of the Republican Party Obtained by the first Bush after Reagan's two terms, interestingly enough.
