MemberOvomorphNov-09-2021 8:25 AMSaw this movie or series in early 2000 and haven't been able to place it since. The plot is vaguely that a human-like alien species has subjugated earth's citizens through mind control. I remember something about the mind control being emitted from a large tv screen on the side of one of the downtown buildings. Also, the plot mentions that a large disc atop one of the downtown buildings, long believed to be just interesting architecture, was actually their ship which landed many years ago. Please help - I've looked everywhere for any mention of this!

MemberPraetorianNov-09-2021 4:53 PMcan you remember the actors that played in this movie?

MemberOvomorphNov-09-2021 6:22 PMNo clue. It was a pretty low budget show, from what I remember, but there did seem to be lots of extras involved. I'm almost certain it was a series, although I could be wrong. It had a similar plot/feel to Earth: Final Conflict.

MemberOvomorphNov-12-2021 4:04 PMI love they live too lol! Also, dark skies is a good guess. Can’t tell you much beyond the details I have already described, but I vaguely remember the humanoid leaders being dressed in some kind of silver-ish outfit. Also, it seem to be set in the present day or near future. Another detail is that I do remember the humans were being relocated at one point via open air transports, seating around a dozen people. I think they were being reassigned to different areas based on their skills, etc.

MemberPraetorianNov-13-2021 9:07 PMThis sounds awfully like Earth's Final Conflict

MemberOvomorphNov-14-2021 8:04 AMThanks for your reply! As previously mentioned, it does bear similarities to earth: final conflict, but I don’t think that’s it. The large mind control screen on the buildings and the alien ship atop one of the buildings doesn’t seem to align with the earth: final conflict plot.

MemberFacehuggerNov-14-2021 10:41 AMThis is non related, but i loved this show, "surface" 2005. It ONLY lasted One season.

MemberFacehuggerNov-14-2021 10:53 AMWell, could it be "Videodrome" (1983), a film of David Cronenberg? Here's the trailer.

MemberPraetorianNov-14-2021 1:07 PMI remember a movie that came out in the early 2000's where these people would get infected by tiny little aliens from these black rocks, Luke Perry was the main antagonist.
Xenotaris
MemberPraetorianNov-14-2021 1:13 PMOh wait nevermind, Invasion (1997) doesn't fit your description since the aliens release a viral infection to evolve the humans into hivemind aliens and not good old fashion mind control

MemberOvomorphApr-03-2022 1:13 PMIt sounds like you are describing a tv show called ‘V’.
