V: The Final Battle

Archive note

Theatrical lobby card for the climactic installment of the V miniseries franchise, depicting armed resistance fighters confronting an extraterrestrial invasion force. The poster features recognizable cast members Marc Singer and Faye Grant in military tactical gear, positioned against a desert landscape dominated by alien motherships. This artifact documents a pivotal moment in 1980s science-fiction television when the series attempted to resolve its alien-occupation narrative across multiple networks—a coproduction involving Orion Pictures, Universal Television, and Metromedia. Collected by those who document the intersection of broadcast television, practical effects spectacle, and Cold War allegory.
