Hey, a new Italian sci-fi film! 6 Days on Earth, aka 6 Giorni sulla Terra, is directed by one Varo Venturi (a new name to me, but he directed an interesting sounding film in 2007 called Nazareno) and stars Massimo Poggio (who has featured in the likes of Sacred Heart (2005) and Il compleanno (2009)). It was shot for a budget of €1 million and has been released on36 screens.
The synopsis goes something like this:
Dr. Davide, a courageous scientist, has been studying thousands of cases related to alien abductions, obtaining by the abductees under hypnosis, the unsettling thesis that some extraterrestrial races have been installing for millennia their active memories in the abducted people’s brains, in order to “live” through them in this dimension, exploiting a special human energy: the Soul… But when the scientist will decide to help Saturnia, a seductive eighteen-old girl that believes she has been abducted, and shows a clear attraction for him – he will have to face an insurmountable problem: once hypnotized, Saturnia will not leave anymore the trance condition, giving place to Hexabor of Ur – an alien entity coming from Mesopotamian ages that consider himself an half-god. This will be complicated by the unexpected discovery that Saturnia belong to a wealthy black aristocracy’s family…
