Intruders is a four-hour CBS miniseries dealing with the subject of alien abduction that was first broadcast in 1992. The miniseries starred Richard Crenna, Daphne Ashbrook and Mare Winningham. It was partially based on ufologist Budd Hopkins' book Intruders: The Incredible Visitations at Copley Woods.
Lesley Hahn lives in California, and is plagued by nightmares about
faceless telephone repairmen entering her house and taking her. She
contacts psychiatrist Dr Neil Chase in hope of receiving treatment for
her nightmares.
Mary Wilkes, is a housewife from Nebraska who has a history of
unexplained blackouts and one night ends up on a motorway miles from her
home. She is also plagued by nightmares similar to those experienced by
Lesley. Mary decides to take a holiday in California with her sister,
who knows Dr Chase, and is persuaded to see the psychiatrist to find out
if he can help with her nightmares. Initially, Dr Chase does not
believe Lesley, thinking her nightmares to be related to childhood
abuse, but becomes convinced something else is happening when Mary tells
him of similar experiences.
Neil is struck by the similarities between the two cases, and
realises that symbols seen on board an alien ship and drawn by Mary are
similar to that of another patient of his, a former soldier who
encountered a crashed UFO which was recovered by the government. Making
contact with a university professor who does research into alien
abductions, he begins to investigate the wider world of alien
encounters, and runs into a general who is investigating UFOs in secret.
Finally, Mary is abducted again, and learns the true purpose of the
aliens.
