The Monitors (1969)
9/10
The Monitors: A tyranny no less pleasant remains a tyranny
29 April 2003
The aliens conquer earth but while their reign is benevolent earth has no use for it and rises up in rebellion to re-establish human corruption and perfidity.

Punctuated by a cameo appearance by Golden Tonsils, the last great orator Everet Dirksen, the Monitors is an off beat comment on the rebellious nature of mankind against tyranny no less benign.

The movie appears to have been the inspiration for the TV mini series V which portrays an alien presence whose beneficience is far more superficial.

Highly recommended for Fullosians.
