Dark Angel
An executive entrepreneur is driving his 70,000 brand new car. He puts on a CD of classical music, but it starts blurring away and connecting to the radio. The CD is pushed out of the machine and it distracts this gentleman, who almost has a car accident. He has to steer wildly away from an incoming truck and his car gets stuck in a field nearby. At that moment, a UFO or something like that hits and completely wrecks his car, although this man can jump out of harm. An alien - which looks like a human blind person - floats out of the crater and tells him "I come in peace."Title credits. {The original title was Dark Angel, not I Come in Peace}A burglar (Kevin Page) enters a building.

The owner (Jack Wilils) is attacked. The thugs are violent, and punch in the face one of the customers (Jack Verbois) for no reason while a female customer screams her lungs off (Stacey Cortez).

Jack kills one of the liquor thugs while Ray is murdered.All the Whiteboys (Sebastian White, Dean Kinkel, David Poynter, Folkert Schmidt, Randall Oliver and Gary Baxley), as the high-time criminals are called by their boss, are leaving the place, when the evil alien, called Talec (Matthias Hues) arrives and says "I come in peace" and starts killing them by throwing some sharp discs and cutting their necks. It's then that Jack enters the deal place and finds Ray dead.Jack is left traumatized for a second. Captain Malone (Jim Haynie) screams to him because he disappeared for 8 days. He is blaming Jack for the lost heroin. A patrolwoman (Suzanne Savoy) announces some important people in. Malone orders Jack to take a holiday or quit.

Smith supports Jack, although he doesn't seem to agree with Jack's methods.They go back to the place of the murders, and hidden behind a loudspeaker, they find the still moving disc; in fact it flies away and wrecks some more until it finds itself stuck again into the same loudspeaker.Talec goes to a warehouse. He interrupts a security guard (Brian Fitkin) and does to him the same he did to the bail office owner. At that moment, Azeck (Jay Bilas) appears and shoots Talec without saying anything; Talec has torun away. Azeck creates havoc in the parking, wrecking cars and burning everything. Talec jumps from a second floor; several witnesses see Azeck and will believe he is the bad guy.Jack invites Smith for a drink at his apartment, while he stares at the photograph of himself enjoying his time with his old girlfriend. Jack visits Diane, who at first slams the door on his face. Jack apologises to her, but she hits him in his face anyway. He kisses her but she asks for some kind of commitment from him. Diane is annoyed with herself for falling into his trap.Jack arrives at this apartment and the door is open - it has been registered. There are soft noises... but it's only Smith. Jack Caine seems to suspect that it's odd that Smith its inside, but maybe it was only chance that he appeared to tell him of other two murders when he saw the door open.At a garage, a mechanic (Mimi Cochran) is working on a car with rock music blasting on. Talec appears to feed on her and then kills her. The alien is feeding on humans.Bruce the scientist (Mark Lowenthal) is nuts and eccentric. He hides his pills and tells about the disc.

Jack Caine tells him to hide it.Diane does the autopsy to one of the male victims to Talec, who had used heroin to kill them.Victor Manning (Sherman Howard) sends Caine a photo of himself with bikini girls in Rio, and tells him that he had sent him Warren (Sam Anderson), the head of the Whiteboys.

Smith hangs up a stupid blonde (Kristin Baxley)'s call. Diane takes care of Jack's neck wound. She explains that heroin produces well-being because of the endorphins segregated by the human body when inhaled and it produces something similar to ecstasy.Jack thinks that they are dealing with aliens; Smith thinks he's going crazy. Bruce has been beaten to a pulp because he tried to defend the disc. Jack doesn't trust Smith because Bruce says the criminal looked like him.At a supermarket, the alien attacks a weird customer (Wayne Dehart) and the cashier (Brandon Smith) and wants to feed on the security guard (Kevin Howard), but Azeck attacks him first. The two aliens fight each other. Caine and Smith try to tell the Captain that aliens are to blame, but he thinks that they are nuts. Jack, Larry and Diane are not allowed to see the crime scene. Smith goes to talk to his boss, while the good alien is hiding while being badly-hurt. Jack is also told off by his boss, and hes forced to go on a holiday. Jack proposes Diane to go with him on a holiday; she is overjoyed about that and will happily go with her. Diane will never forgive him if he lets her down. Smith agrees with all the decisions taken.The badly-hurt good alien is hiding in Jack's car, and he says "It must be stopped". Smith sees the alien and Jack calms him down, saying that he's in their side. They drive away. The bad angel gives 1,000 overdose of heroin to humans so that the body releases endorphins and he can take them out of the body; that is highly illegal and expensive in the aliens' world. The good alien dies, becomes a kind of light bomb, so now they don't have proof. Smith has taken the alien's weapon - and that will be their proof. Jack wants to have the weapon, but Smith wants to take it to Switzer: he has to pull out his gun to prevent Jack from taking it away. Smith leaves and gives Switzer the gun. First he got the disc and then the gun, Switzer says. This is a case of national interest, but now Smith needs to get rid of their only witness, Jack Caine, and then the military benefits of using the weapons will be enormous. Switzer says that you can't make an omelette without breaking a few eggs, which startles Smith, as Jack had said that Switzer would say something like that. As Smith is having second thoughts, Switzer tries to kill him, but Caine shoots Switzer first. Smith is told "Never trust nobody. Caine manual. Page one Chapter one by cool-as-a-cucumber Caine. It's now when Smith realises that following the procedures is not always the best option.Smith finds the empty heroin bags.

The weapon looks stuck until Smith learns how to use it; however, Talec looks almost immune to it. Jack finds the bag of endorphins - and Talec realises he's missed them too late. Talec is pissed-off but well of health.Jack Caine takes care of Smiths' wound and gives him a cooler jacket. Caine and Smith almost shoot Diane, who wants to go with Jack on a holiday. They push her out of the way. The Whiteboys demand their money and shoot Jack, Diane and Smith, but luckily Smith has learned how to use the alien gun. Diane demands an explanation, especially when they had to hide from a police officer (Jackson Burns). One of the Whiteboys shoot him - Talec appears shooting everybody on sight.There is a car persecution scene. The alien kills a patrolman (Tom Campitelli) and Smith shoots him, but Talen is OK again and runs after them. They try to trick the alien, but the alien gun is empty, and normal bullets won't harm him, even at close range. Jack creates a series of explosions in the factory, but the alien is still alright. Jack shoes Talen the vials with the endorphins, and breaks two, which infuriates him.Both throw away their guns. Talec approaches but Jack backs up and runs away. The alien throws a disc after Jack, but it gets stuck at a metal lid. Jack and Talec fight. Talec throws the wire towards Jack, but he holds it with his two hands. There is a tug of war until they are very close and then Jack stings the thing onto Talec. He kicks him onto a broken tube, de facto impaling him. The alien is hurt and repeats I come in piece, to which Jack replices "And you go in pieces asshole".Diane, Jack and Arwood "Larry" Smith leave, shaken but more or less in one piece.
