Corsa a Witch Mountain

Jack Bruno è un taxista che un giorno si ritrova nella vettura, senza sapere come ci siano saliti, due ragazzini. Costoro gli offrono una cifra spropositata perché li conduca in una casa isolata. Nel frattempo le autorità locali hanno individuato la presenza di un Ufo di cui non si trovano gli occupanti. I due ragazzi, fratello e sorella, dicono al taxista di doversi rincontrare a breve con i familiari. L'uomo però comprende che c'è qualcosa di strano e rimane per aiutarli. Scoprirà che si tratta di due alieni che provengono da un pianeta morente il cui Governo ha deciso di colonizzare la Terra. Per evitarlo bisogna trovare i dati di un esperimento realizzato dai loro genitori che consentirebbe la ripresa della vita nel pianeta d'origine. Ma ormai la decisione della colonizzazione è stata presa e i due ragazzi sono diventati le prede di un temibile Siphon.
