The Stranger Within (1974)


Directed by Lee Philips
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)

Preposterous made-for-TV movie about a housewife who mysteriously becomes pregnant. Barbara Eden overacts, overeats and drinks a lot of coffee during the worst pregnancy ever put on film. She insists her husband is the father despite his vasectomy operation. A bewildered George Grizzard is the husband and wants to believe her, but even under hypnosis she doesn't convince him. It's all explained away by aliens in the absurd ending.
