The Visitors
Bill Schmidt (James Woods) is a Vietnam veteran who has returned home and wants to take it easy. His father-in-law Harry Wayne (Patrick McVey), who hates his guts, takes exception to this. When two other veterans (Steve Railsback, Chico Martinez) show up looking to harass Schmidt, Harry helps pave their way straight to his door. Bill prosecuted them in Vietnam for murder and rape, and they've just gotten out of prison... Low budget psychological drama from famed director Elia Kazan ("On the Waterfront"), and scripted by son Chris, is most notable for early screen appearances by the always intense Woods and Railsback.
