The third TV movie leading up to the short lived series; this one, again, suffers from not enough material to stretch to feature length. There’s a bit of “Invasion of the Body Snatchers” here as the sci-fi aspect is put front and center but this seems better suited to the hour (i.e. 48 mins) long format of weekly episodes.
“The Death Scouts” is an enjoyable sit-through for people interested in 70’s Sci-Fi/Adventure on the TV scale. There’s nothing impressive in the special effects department but there’s quite a lot of imagination running loose here.
A man washes up on shore…
