'Elvis From Outer Space': Meet Martin Kove and the cast of the quirky adventure-comedy before its VOD release
It's 2020 and so you can expect a film about Elvis Presley going up against aliens and the mafia. And that ironically is not the weirdest thing to come out of this year. Nevertheless, the film's premise is enough to make your eyes as large as UFOs and promises to be quite a treat.
A synopsis of the film reads states: " 'Elvis From Outerspace' is a psychedelic rant about a gambling Elvis impersonator and his troubles with the Vegas Mafia, featuring a hapless crew of broken down Elvis impersonators who find themselves in competition with an Elvis who's so good, everybody starts to wonder. Could it really be true that the CIA and aliens from Alpha Centauri have brought Elvis back to Vegas?
