V

V

“Humankind's last stand.”
7.8 /10 (991) 1983
Action & Adventure Drama Sci-Fi & Fantasy
Creator Kenneth Johnson
Screenplay Kenneth Johnson
Fifty enormous spacecraft descend over Earth's major cities, and the humanlike Visitors who emerge offer friendship, technology, and access to resources humanity desperately needs — an offer that only a handful of skeptics, including Faye Grant's Juliet Parrish, suspect is too good to be true. Jane Badler's icy commander Diana becomes the face of an occupation that slowly reveals itself as invasion, forcing ordinary people into an underground resistance modeled deliberately on World War II. Kenneth Johnson's original miniseries used its alien premise as a thinly veiled allegory for fascism's seductive rise. Decades before prestige sci-fi made subtext fashionable, 'V' proved that popcorn spectacle and political warning could share the same screen.
