...there aren't many "Made For TV" movies that stand out . . . But, This One Does!!! My earliest memory of this TV movie was back when it was shown on the ABC TV Network Show "Tuesday Movie Of The Week" (I saw it in Black & White, It IS in Color) in 1970. This is a story of aliens from two different planets to wage war against each other . . and staying oblivious to earthlings on what's going on with each other. In my opinion, this movie reminds me of the TV show "The Invaders" (also a show on ABC) but, with a different twist & story line. Lloyd Bridges (Remember Sea Hunt?), Angie Dickensen (Police Woman) & Daniel J. Travanti (Hill St. Blues) star in this movie. As a collector of movies from my past, I have yet to see this title available on either VHS, BETA, LASERDISC, or DVD. This title is also very hard to catch on Cable or anywhere else. If you're one of the lucky ones to watch it, This TV Movie is Excellent Entertainment!! Enjoy.

Like most of the other comments I also saw this as a kid...I don't even think I knew it was a sci-fi movie at the beginning...but as they chased each other and fired their guns...I got very involved.So I was excited to see it available for download on the internet! I don't want to start a discussion about downloads! I would have paid to obtain this movie thru normal channels (will if someone tells me where..seriously I feel that strongly about it...Tori Spelling maybe?) I didn't even think it was possible since I don't think VHS was even around back then. Any ways I set it to download...since its so rare it took 6 1/2 months (not kidding...I think only one other person was making it available) and this morning 5:47 est, to my surprise it had finished.Like Indiana Jones holding a diamond....I pressed the "PLAY" button.Yes I enjoyed it! The whole war issue it brings up is a great a conversation piece now as it was back then. It has lost nothing...But the most important part for me! After 37 1/2 years later I get a second look thru those glasses! I can finally cross it off my list of things to do...seriously...I never thought I would see it again..but really wanted to...and now I have.Just a trip to the moon and my list is complete and I can die a happy man......I really thought the trip to moon would be crossed off before I saw this movie again! (wink)

A really strange esoteric sci-fi movie, that came out of the 70s creative culture period: Lloyd Bridges and Angie Dickenson, in a sexy exciting winner takes all,inter galactic rival war,on planet earth: Only identifiable by some really cool looking sexy shades. These aliens were out to kill each other,by hook or crook,cloned as humans! Climatic ending, resulting in a Moor-ssh want for a sequel,that never was.Shame really,yet another one of these black and white 70s B movies,that never gets an airing on afternoon time TV. Out of the Brotherhood of The Bell, Mould: Time for the cover version chaps, Im thinking Charlize Theron and Daniel Craig for the 2008 remake!

Whole decades have passed since I've seen this one. Up until the late-70's, "The Love War" was TV grist for the afternoon just-home-from-school crowd or nightowls on the independent stations. It has since vanished.Lousy title, but a terrific premise: aliens fight a low-level, unseen war in a U.S. city for territorial control of the Earth. Some neat special effects (for 1970), a starry cast and a twist in the tale make this worth another look. Certainly worth consideration for a re-make.
