AFF Hosting Free Screening of X-Files Exec Producer's New Film, Alien Trespass

Austin Film Festival is bringing in director R.W. Goodwin for a special sneak preview screening of his upcoming sci-fi thriller, Alien Trespass. The film's cast includes Eric McCormack ("Will and Grace"), Robert Patrick (Terminator 2: Judgement Day), and Dan Lauria ("The Wonder Years"). Goodwin, who served as executive producer on “The X Files” and “Life Goes On,” will conduct a Q&A after the film.

Here's the Alien Trespass synopsis, courtesy AFF:

Set in 1957, Alien Trespass chronicles a fiery object from outer space that crashes into a mountaintop in the California desert, brining the threat of disaster to Earth. Out of the flying saucer escapes a murderous creature - the Ghota, which is bent on destroying all life forms on the planet. A benevolent alien from the spaceship, Urp, inhabits the body of Ted Lewis (Eric McCormack) - a local astronomer - and with the help of Tammy (Jenni Barid), a waitress from the local diner, sets out to save mankind.
