Synopsis
The Arrival (1996) is a sci-fi thriller you can watch online on iFILM — directed by David Twohy and starring Charlie Sheen as a radio astronomer who picks up a signal that shouldn't exist. Shot across the US and Mexico, runtime 115 minutes.
The moment Zane Ziminski reports his find, he's fired. His boss moves too fast for it to be routine. Zane follows the trail south of the border, where climatologist Ilana Green is tracking weather anomalies that don't fit any natural model. What he pieces together is worse than a cover-up: the aliens aren't hiding, they're operating in plain sight because no one is supposed to survive long enough to talk. Ron Silver and Richard Schiff round out a cast that keeps the pressure tight from scene to scene.
Director Twohy built the film around Hitchcock-style paranoia — every official answer is a lie, every helpful face could be an enemy. The tagline says it all: centuries of scanning the skies, while the real danger was already on the ground. Stream The Arrival (1996) in full online on iFILM.
