The Sender (1998)
Starring Michael Madsen...no wait come back... i quite enjoyed this daft sci-fi action romp about Madsen's former air force pilot, his daughter who has 'sending' powers (No, no idea either to be honest other than she can concoct balls of green light in her hands) an alien angel and R Lee Ermey's despot army colonel out to stop them. Throw in Robert Vaughn, shoot out's at Griffith Park Observatory, some wild freeway action sequences, even more wilder flying sequences and you've got a movie that's nonsensical but still enjoyable fun.
Think Starman with loads of shit blowing up and you have The Sender.
Watched this from a ten movie box set picked up years ago from Boulevard Entertainment. For direct to dvd tat it looked f*cking awesome upscaled on my Blu-ray player.
