Thank you for reading.

ello all.

I'm looking for a movie I saw on television late night/early morning, circa 1986.

What follows is the most that I can recall.

A group of three or more people, (men and women), strangers to each other, are individually abducted by aliens.

They are taken to an abandoned military base (or perhaps warehouse emptied for the weekend)

The aliens run psychological experiments on the people.

The experiments seem to consist of one abductee pressing a button on one side of a partition, resulting in some physical harm being inflicted on another abductee who is positioned on the other side of the partition. It seemed reminiscent of the famous Milgram experiment.

The experiments end when the abductees come to realize that inflicting harm on another abductee is immoral or otherwise wrong. They refuse to cooperate further.

Lastly, the aliens are tall, wear white gowns, and have heads that are shiny and mirrored in the way that disco balls are mirrored. At least, that is what I remember.

Does anyone have any clue as to the name of this obscure movie?

Thanks again for reading.

From what I know of it possibly "Laboratory" from circa 1980 directed by Bob Emmeneger.

Dear JJ80:

Thank you. From your description and from IMDB, it looks as if Laboratory fits the description.

Wow! It only took one day for an answer. I am very impressed.

Thanks again.

No problem at all. Glad you found your movie!  :thumbup:
