Personal Comments
Voyage of the Rock Aliens is clearly made for a much younger audience that Butterfly or The Lonely Lady. It�s one long videoclip and it�s also filmed in that style. The most bizarre things happen, aliens arrive on Earth, their�s a monster in the lake, Graig Sheffer sounds like Jermaine Jackson� but to the characters in this film it all seems normal. It's really the eighties at their best (or worst, you decide)
Released in Europe shortly after the huge succes of �When the Rain Begins To Fall�,
Voyage... was also very successfull, especially in Germany. In the US, it was never released in the theaters, but immediately on video (in 1988).
...and when the rain...(dip to the left)...begins to fall
Frankie (Craig Sheffer) and Dee are the coolest couple in Heidi High School, but he refuses to let her sing with his band...
...so Dee Dee teams up with Absid and she doesn't mind that he's an alien. But when he proposes to do an emolectomy on her, she runs back to Frankie.
