A pulpy sci-fi thriller that mixes a murder mystery with alien conspiracy, propelled by action and paranoia rather than depth.

When mailman Bridd Takes his sexy date Charlotte home, they find their boss on the floor with a mail opener stuck in his chest. The assailants are also after Bridd and he has to use all his talents to foil an extra-terrestrial complot.
