Project ALF

Project: ALF is a TV movie directed by Dick Lowry. It is the sequel to the final episode, "Consider Me Gone" , of the ALF TV series. It was broadcast in the U.S. by ABC and in Canada on CHCH on February 17, 1996. The film was released on DVD in 2005. The film begins where the original television series finishes, with Gordon Shumway—otherwise known by the name ALF, standing for Alien Life Form—being captured by the US Air Force's Alien Task Force while attempting to depart Earth. ALF is kept under lock and key at Edmonds Air Force Base under the xenophobic orders of Colonel Milfoil... , although he manages to charm his airmen jailers and convert his cell into a bachelor pad. Acting on his own initiative, Milfoil plans on killing his prisoner under the guise of a beauty treatment for which he has left a paper trail implicating his aide de camp, Lieutenant Reese , as scapegoat. Learning of this, two Air Force scientists—Major Mellisa Hill and Captain Capt. Rick Mullican — help ALF escape, going to ground at a cheap motel.
