Old sci-fi film - alien on Earth pursued by two others
Resolved Might be a long shot, but...I remember a film, probably black and white, about a human-looking alien on Earth being pursued by two other aliens, who may have been travelling by motorbike. I seem to remember they had some sort of glowing 'homing' device that they used to track him. Not an altogether unique plot but any ideas what it might be? Thanks.--Michig (talk) 20:20, 4 October 2011 (UTC)


 * No motorbike that I can recall, but two dudes chase Michael Rennie on foot in Cyborg 2087. Clarityfiend (talk) 20:49, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the suggestion. Watching it now on Youtube - might be it but not quite what I remember.--Michig (talk) 21:06, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
 * 30 minutes in and I think this must be it. Thanks. --Michig (talk) 21:26, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
