Category:Film:AncientAstronauts

Films featuring "Ancient Astronauts", perhaps of the prehistoric advanced human civilization variety, but more likely of varieties more or less matching the description of eldritch abominations. This category may include films that more or less adhere to some mainstream UFO abduction mythology, but might also include The Thing (1982 franchise) and Alien (1979 franchise) with their ancient saucers full of face-eating horror, and occasionally more traditionally Lovecraftian fare involving Sufficiently Advanced aliens masquerading as gods, creating humans, and threatening to rise again when the Stars Are Right.
