There was a film i saw on the telly, years ago. About the ‘survivors’ of a plane crash in the desert. In fact they were all ghosts, at the end, their bodies were found and the ghosts disappeared, until there was only one ghost left. He has survived the crash and walked away and died later, so his body wasn’t found and he was then left on his own.

Sole Survivor?

Sorry, I don’t know, but it sounds a laugh a minute 🙁

Not Sole survivor, but that looks close

It is sole survivor, there were two versions

That’s the one!!! But the imdb talked of the general guy bailing out, i din’t remember that bit. But the baseball bit at the end is the clincher

Aww, I was just sitting down to watch that…

Knew I was right 😛

Hmm, remember the film.

Sure one of the actors was in Cool Hand Luke, think he was called Kennedy.
Will keep looking

Quick Google search would suggest a lot of other people are trying to answer the same question.

IIRC the plane was a B25 and the last ghost was that of the tail gunner, who’s body was under the plane.

That’s right he was under the plane.

Quick Google search would suggest a lot of other people are trying to answer the same question.

what search term did you use???

Is it a Twilight Zone episode called, “King Nine Will Not Return”?

no, it was sole survivor

google ‘film about ghosts in the desert’. Sole survivor and the twilight zone episode come up straight away.

I used

“film desert ghosts discovered plane crash”

and found the Guardian link on the first page.

Movie plane crash desert ghosts.

Think I was wrong about George Kennedy, he was in ‘Flight of the Phoenix’.

Will try and watch ‘Sole Survivor’ later, seems to be the best guess so far.

Debbie does Dallas – The Next Generation?

Wasn’t Richard Baseheart an old bloke survivor who comes back to the plane years later and was responsible for the crash…….Or summut?

wow! This thread is even freakier. I though i was just misremebering parts of it, but this makes me unsure

Nice thread! I can vaguely remember watching this years ago and have from time to time struggled to work out what it was. I think I’ve been trying (admittedly not very hard) for about 10 years.

I remember that , now, thanks for the link, one to watch later.

As others on the answerpool and various other threads I’ve read state, I was sure that the crew members DIDN’T realise that they were dead ’till near the end of the movie.

However, as there doesn’t seem to be any other similar films about, I guess it must just be my memory playing tricks on me.

It was about 35 years ago after all. 😀

Does anyone have a link to a better quality video than the youtube version?
