It Came from Outer Space II
A photographer returning to his Arizona hometown witnesses a spacecraft land in the desert, then discovers that silent alien duplicates are replacing residents while preparing their damaged vessel to leave Earth. Aliens crashland near a small desert town, strewing odd bluish-glowing rocks throughout the area. Townfolk notice something is amiss when temperatures begin to soar, water disappears, power goes down and people seem not to be themselves. Aliens searching for plutonium for their disabled spacecraft take over the bodies and minds of the residents of a small California desert town.
