(beeping)

- Have you found our location yet?

- No.

You should have stopped and asked for directions.

- Honey, I know where we're going.

- You just can't admit that we're lost.

- We're not lost, I'm just confused

about the name of the planet we're looking for, that's all.

- The name of the planet?

- Yes, it's difficult and complicated to pronounce.

What was the name of it again?

- Earth.

(beeping)

(whirring)

Our ship will find the exact location to land,

we have more important things to be concerned with.

- Say, hon, do you suppose we have time

for a quick one before we land?

- You want a quick one?

We have a 30 year mission

of vital and painstaking importance,

and you want to know if we have time for a quick one?

- 30 years is a long time, sweetheart.

- Stand back.

The threshold of a new dawn awaits us.

(roaring)

Honey, I thought you said you weren't going to sublease

until after we moved out?

Don't be so clumsy,

that's our only means of communication.

(car horn honking)

('50s-style music)

- That was the greatest.

Especially the part

where the boulder swerved off to one side,

I thought it was coming right at us.

- Yeah, and the part where those two aliens

stepped out of fog,

I thought I was in...

- What are you two supposed to be?

- We're looking for a place to stay,

perhaps you know of one?

- You've gotta be kidding.

(laser zapping)

(tense music)

(groaning)

- How about you, sister?

You know of a place for us?

- Well, my parents have a guest house,

but I don't think there's enough room for the two of you.

- And where do you live?

- Over there.

- I think your parents will make room for us.

- In fact, maybe they'll let us have the whole place.

- Oh no!

Oh no, no!

No, no!

No, no!

(screaming)

(futuristic music)

('50s-style music)

(laser zapping)

(suspenseful music)

(laser zapping)

(satellite beeping)

- [Alien Leader] We have been watching

your progress carefully.

Are you ready for the final phase of your mission?

- Yes.

We have culminated our 30 years of research on this planet.

- [Alien Leader] Have you been able to conceal

your satellite dish from your neighbors?

- Completely.

(esoteric music)

(satellite dish whistling)

- 1:30.

(sighing)

- [Alien Leader] Excellent.

If all goes as planned,

we will begin our invasion.

Have you chosen the proper day?

- Yes, I marked it on our Earth calendar.

We have chosen a perfect day.

- A day we will be completely unnoticed,

October 31st.

(alarm buzzing)

(peaceful music)

- What in the world is that?

- It's a model of a molecule, I made it for science fair.

- Are you planning to eat it?

- No.

- Then why is it on the table?

- Your project doesn't look very complicated to me.

Now, when I was in school and made a project,

it had a lot of moving parts on it.

- Sounds like a lot of things went wrong with that.

- Well, that's besides the point.

It's the effort that's important.

- Eric, you look tired.

Have you been speaking on the phone all night again?

- No, it's that lousy satellite dish outside my bedroom.

It never stops making noise.

- [Eric's Father] Do you want me to talk

to the neighbors about it?

- No, I'll handle it.

(car horn honking)

- And what is that?

- It's Ellen and Sherwin, I promised I'd help 'em

take their projects to school.

(car horn honking)

(car horn honking)

All right, I get the message, stop honking.

- Sherwin wanted to make sure you weren't sleeping.

- You ready to go?

- Yeah.

- What did you make?

- You'll see.

My dad helped me with it.

He said it's not worth making a project

unless it has a lot of moving parts.

- Ah, somebody left the trash cans in the driveway.

I'll get 'em.

- No, let me.

- No, you got plenty of room.

(satellite beeping)

(whirring) (crashing)

(static hissing)

- What was that?

- You just creamed your neighbors' satellite dish.

- Yeah, I did.

(tires screeching)

(lighthearted music)

- [Announcer] Attention, students.

We don't care if the lecture next door sounds better.

No switching classrooms.

- Eric, that molecule's your whole project?

- Yeah, something wrong with it?

- No, I just expected more from you.

- [Teacher] Good morning, students.

- [Students] Good morning.

- Well, would anyone like to go first?

Sherwin.

What do we call this?

- This is a display of a meteor traveling through space.

- Is that it?

- No, there's more.

See, a meteor shower.

- Sherwin, I'm assuming you did some research

for this project.

Does the air in this classroom

represent the vacuum of space?

- Um, yeah, it sure does.

- And does the way these rocks hit the floor

represent the way a meteor enters our atmosphere?

- Um, exactly.

- And are these actual meteorites that you've found?

- Uh, yes, they are.

- Is that why this rock

has the toy store price tag still on it?

(students laughing)

Don't worry, I'll give you a C for effort.

What did you make, Ellen?

- Several years ago, many people protested

against the fishing nets used by many of the tuna companies.

Dolphins were frequently caught in these nets

and needlessly killed.

But, after several letter writing campaigns,

a newer net was designed,

which allowed the dolphins to pass through

unharmed.

And here's a list of the companies

now using these newer modified nets.

- [Teacher] A very impressive exhibit.

I'm giving you an A.

- What do you expect from someone who's perfect?

- You see, it's a, um...

- No.

Wait, let me guess what it is.

It's a sort of a prototype of a community of the future.

Sphere in the middle represents the planet,

and the toothpicks, the shortest distance

to each of its satellites.

- Yeah, that's right.

- [Student] Another impressive feat.

You also get an A.

- I thought that was supposed to be a model of a molecule.

- Eric, are you busy later tonight?

I thought I could come over and we could study together.

- Yeah, and there's a great movie

on The Late Show that we can watch.

- Sorry guys, I can't.

You know, I think tonight might finally be quiet,

and I've got a lot of sleep to catch up on.

- Well, I guess it's just you and me, babe.

(crickets chirping)

(futuristic beeping and whirring)

(sinister music)

(electrical fizzling)

(satellite beeping)

(alarm buzzing)

(suspenseful music)

- Good morning, son.

- Good morning.

- You look tired again.

That satellite dish still keeping you awake?

- Yeah, I mean no.

There's something that I wanted to ask you

about our neighbors.

How long have they lived there?

- Hm.

I don't know,

I think they were already living there

when we first moved in here.

- You were still a child then.

- You know, I don't think I've ever seen them outside.

I guess they must work nights or something.

What's the problem?

Did you want me still to talk to the neighbors

about their satellite dish?

- No, I said I'd handle it myself.

(tense music)

- We'll conclude this tomorrow.

Class dismissed.

(students chatting)

- [Ellen] Well, you ready to go?

- [Eric] No, I'll catch up with you later.

Professor Levelland, there's something I wanted to ask you.

- Certainly, Eric, what is it?

- What kind of force

could cut through a clock like this?

- It's amazing to see a break this even.

Looks like none of the inner mechanisms

have been damaged.

There's a minute level of radiation,

as if the force of the atom were controlled

and used without any dangerous side effects.

The device that did this, did you create it?

- No.

- Do you have access to it?

- Well, I don't know.

- I don't think you understand the importance of this.

The possibilities of its use are endless.

- I don't know if I can get the gun or not.

- Well then, you do know what it looks like.

- Well, yes.

- Eric, I realize that sometimes students lose interest

when they're in their last year at school.

It's not uncommon.

I can easily see it in you.

- What do you mean?

- Well, your science project, for example.

Do you think that I didn't know

that it was supposed to be a model of a molecule?

- You knew?

Why didn't you say anything?

- Because college counselors will be here later this week,

and I didn't think embarrassing you in front of the class

would be good for your morale.

- Boy, I appreciate it.

- And the gun that did this?

- I'll see what I can do.

(suspenseful music)

(knocking)

(door creaking)

Hey!

- Eric, what are you doing there?

- Would you be quiet?

- What are you doing over at that house?

- I'm visiting my neighbors, do you mind?

- Are you gonna tell 'em that you're the one

that backed into their satellite dish?

- Would you be quiet?

- What's the matter with you?

- Nothing.

Can't I visit my neighbors

without you asking a lot of dumb questions?

- Sorry.

- Go on, I'll see you later.

Is anyone home?

(high-pitched buzzing)

(suspenseful music)

- Hello. - Oh.

- You live next door, don't you?

- [Eric] That's right, my name's Eric.

- I'm Lubbock,

and this is Exeter.

- Nice to meet you.

It's funny we've lived next door to each other

and never met.

- It must be our different schedules.

You seem to be gone from eight to four

the majority of days each week.

- [Eric] My father wondered what kind of work you do.

- We're TV repairmen.

- Uh, that's right, we're TV repairmen.

Get the letter from our boss.

(whooshing)

- Eric, I think we have to talk.

- We do?

- You're not the first person to discover

that we're not from your planet.

- You're not?

- We've been here since before you were born.

- I think we fit into your world fairly well.

- Eric, are you planning to tell anyone about us?

- [Eric] Am I supposed to?

- Actually, no.

You see, we can change our appearances at will.

It proves rather embarrassing when people explain

that they have seen aliens then cannot identify them.

- You seem like such a nice boy.

You wouldn't want people to think

you were losing your mind, would you?

- No, I wouldn't.

- Our mission here is almost over.

I'd hate to see you tell anyone about us

when we're so close to leaving.

- It would leave us in a very bad situation.

If you told anyone,

we would either have to kill you,

or take you back to our planet.

- I'm sure you can use your own judgment.

- Can I go now?

- Anytime you're ready.

- Eric.

- Huh?

- You dropped this.

(Exeter laughing)

(Lubbock laughing)

- Professor, I've got you the gun.

- What happened?

Is someone after you?

- No.

Just don't ask me to go back for anything else.

- Well, thank you for the gun.

Look, uh, I'll experiment with it later.

I have to get to the pumpkin carving demonstration, I...

Eric?

Eric?

- Who are you going to the party with, Ellen?

- I'll tell you in a second.

Eric. - Huh?

- Where were you after class?

I've been waiting here for almost an hour.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I had something to do.

- I wanted to ask you if you were planning

to go to the Halloween party Friday night in the gym.

- I don't know, I'll have to talk to you about it later.

- Maybe we can go as a famous couple.

- I don't know, I'll tell you later.

- [Sherwin] I'll take you to the party, Ellen.

- No thanks, Sherwin.

(satellite beeping)

- Honey, have you seen our laser gun?

- No, dear, I haven't.

- But sweetheart, you were the last one to have used it.

- Doll face, I don't have the gun.

Where did you see it last?

- It was right after that fool neighbor of ours

paid us a visit.

(tense music)

- Hello, Eric.

- Hi.

- Small world, isn't it?

- You have something of ours

that you took without our permission.

- Huh?

I don't know what you're talking about.

- It's not here.

- We want our gun and we want it now.

- [Announcer] Attention, students.

Don't forget to attend the Halloween party this Friday.

Be sure to cast your vote

for the couple with the best costume.

(clearing throat)

- How to carve a pumpkin.

Please stand back.

First, you gut the pumpkin, and then you carve it.

(tense futuristic music)

(squelching)

- [Announcer] Remember, anyone participating

in lewd and disorderly conduct

will be disqualified from the costume contest.

(tense futuristic music)

(muffled groaning)

- Hm, our leader will be pleased with this information.

- What would you like to start with?

- How about a scalpel?

- Hm, I can't find one.

How about

this power tool?

- Fantastic.

(muffled groaning)

(laughing) (power tool whirring)

(alarm buzzing)

(peaceful music)

- Are you sure the whole thing was just a holiday prank?

- Well, sure it was.

You don't seriously think I'd knife someone, do you?

- No, I guess not.

Sherwin was really upset about it, though.

- Can I share your biology book today?

- Great, we can sit together at the same desk.

I wish you had accidents like this more often.

- Hi.

- Sherwin, what is that?

- A Halloween mask that I made.

Can you guess what I'm going as?

- Is it an amphibian?

(Sherwin laughing)

- No.

Guess again.

- We'll, is it a reptile?

- No.

- Well, is it warm-blooded or cold-blooded?

- It's a frog mask.

I'm going to be dressed as the Frog Prince.

Then maybe I'll meet some beautiful princess at the party.

She'll kiss me.

- [Girls] Guess again.

- [Eric] What's in the bit?

- "Your coworker could be a space alien, say experts."

- Let me see that.

- Wait until I'm finished.

"Tip offs and signs to watch for.

"Odd or mismatched clothes,

"poor sense of humor,

"a misuse of everyday items,

"secretive about personal lifestyle and home."

Do you wanna see this?

- Uh, no.

- [Announcer] Attention, students.

Lunchtime is over.

Return to your classroom immediately.

- I have the perfect plan for this Halloween.

- What's that?

- We can go to the midnight show

they're having at the theater.

Listen to what they're playing,

It Came From Outer Space.

What's the matter?

- You couldn't have picked a film I'd wanna see less.

- But It Came From Outer Space is in 3D!

When the aliens land,

it's like they're right in front of your face,

and they can reach out and grab you.

- Just forget it.

- Eric, have you been working on your fall schedule yet?

- No, I haven't had a chance.

- I think I'm gonna major in microbiology,

and minor in social science.

- I'm gonna major in general ed,

and minor in more general ed.

- I still don't know.

I think I'll major in astrophysics and minor...

(laser buzzing)

Uh, hold my place in line.

- Eric?

(buzzing) (beeping)

- Professor Levelland!

- Eric, quick, close the door.

Let me show you what the gun can do?

- Stop!

- [Levelland] Something wrong?

- I just don't think you should be

waving that thing around in here.

You can see the light flashes from outside,

somebody might get suspicious and come in here.

- I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was a problem.

- More than you know.

- Look, look what I've done so far.

It's been able to permeate every surface

that I've tested it on.

Can you guess what this force could do

if it was channeled and used to its fullest capacity?

- No.

- It would make space travel

beyond our solar system possible.

There's something I've been meaning to ask you.

Where did you get this gun?

- I, uh, I don't wanna talk about it.

- Where's Eric?

He's gonna miss his turn.

- Hello.

You're friends with Eric, aren't you?

- Yeah.

Hey, aren't you two the ones

that played that prank with the knife?

- Yes, we are.

- Oh, can I join in next time?

That looked like lots of fun.

- No, next time I'm going to do the stabbing.

- You don't happen to know where Eric is, by any chance?

- No, he was here a minute ago,

and then he just ran off somewhere.

- You don't happen to know anything

about this strange type of gun, do you?

- I know all about it.

- [Together] You do?

- [Sherwin] Sure, I even have it here with me.

(toy gun clicking)

- Uh, Sherwin, we're holding up the line for everyone.

- Would you prefer this one?

(toy gun rattling)

- Out of every planet in the galaxy

they gotta send us to this one.

- Well, you said before that you didn't create this gun.

Then who does it belong to?

- It belongs to one of my neighbors.

- Do they know you took it?

- Well, I'm not sure.

It might be one of a set.

- Do you think they realize what it's capable of doing?

- I'm sure they do.

- Think of what would happen

if the world found out about this device.

Your neighbors would be famous.

They'd probably be on every newspaper front page

across the country.

- I don't think they want the publicity.

- [Levelland] There's something wrong with that?

- It's just that I think that they wanna keep a low profile.

- Oh, I see.

They're not here legally.

- Oh, you could say that.

- They're aliens.

- I didn't say the!

- But there are procedures for this.

People from Iron Curtain countries

can get visas to stay here legally.

That is where they're from, isn't it?

- [Eric] Well, I'm not sure.

They seem to have adapted to our society fairly well.

- Oh, oh,

and you're sure they don't want any publicity?

- Believe me, it's as if it came from their own mouths.

- [Levelland] Well, I suppose you would know them

better than I would.

- Trust me, no publicity.

- I'm going to get back to work.

Do you want to stay and watch?

- No, I think I've seen enough.

- Well look, say hello to your neighbors for me.

- Eric, where were you?

You're two hours late.

- Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize the time.

- Your school called,

you were supposed to meet with a college counselor today

and you never went.

- I forgot.

- I tried saving your place in line.

- You're becoming very irresponsible.

You're going to be 18 this year.

- Dad, not now.

- I'm not finished with you yet.

We'll discuss this later.

- What was that?

- I don't know, I bumped into something I guess.

- Well, let me get the light.

- No, don't!

- What are you doing?

- Oh, I thought it would be more romantic this way.

- Hi there, neighbor.

Say, would you like to borrow a cup of sugar?

- What was that?

- Nothing, the neighbors' TV!

- Eric, I really came over to ask you

about the Halloween party tomorrow.

Do you like the idea of going as Romeo and Juliet?

Caesar and Cleopatra?

Adam and Eve?

- Did you get it?

- I got it.

- [Ellen] Eric, oh, Eric.

Stop. (elastic creaking)

(pinging) - I wonder why

he put four stars by her name.

- You guys wanna help decorate?

- Sure.

What happened to the box?

- I don't know, it's just over by the science lab.

- Uh, uh, let me help decorate too.

(laser zapping)

- Wait till you see what I have planned for tonight.

Cobwebs, and rubber spiders,

and plastic bats, and paper skeletons.

And then maybe we could tell scary stories.

I bet you're gonna have fun tonight.

- I plan to.

(deflating balloon rattling)

- So I'll see you at the gym tonight at--

- [Eric] All right.

- What's the matter?

You sound like you're afraid of someone

knowing where you're gonna be tonight.

- [Eric] Don't worry, I know what time to be there.

- What are you carrying?

- It's a costume, tonight's Halloween.

- Aren't you a little old for trick or treating?

- I'm not going trick or treating,

the school's having a party tonight.

- Oh.

- I remember how the kids used to celebrate Halloween

when I was a child.

Soaping windows, tying doorknobs together,

kicking over trash cans,

harassing the neighborhood pets,

and bricking stingy old people's windows.

God, I hate this night.

('50s-style music)

- Mom, have you seen my phone book?

- No, I haven't.

Eric, you look so nice.

You remind me of your father when we first met,

back when he was still young and handsome.

- What?

- Oh, you know what I mean.

Your father and I used to be a hot item

back when we were in high school.

(laughing)

- Those were the days.

(laughing)

- Yeah.

- [Alien Leader] Everything is on schedule.

(eerie futuristic beeping and whirring)

(tense music)

Has anyone discovered your identities?

- Just one person, our young neighbor.

- He damaged our satellite receiving dish,

and stole our laser gun.

- [Alien Leader] Have you made the proper plans?

- [Lubbock] Yes, we will find the gun and reclaim it.

- [Alien Leader] Has your neighbor told anyone?

- We don't know, but we've taken precautions.

We've taken his personal phone book.

We plan to kill him,

and everyone he knows.

- The phone book has all of their names and addresses.

- [Alien Leader] Good work.

Our secrecy must be protected.

We will be landing at midnight.

- Everything will be taken care of.

- [Alien Leader] We will speak again when we locate you.

- Mom, Dad!

What are you doing?

- Your father decided he doesn't wanna stay around

for Halloween.

- No.

We're going to Palm Springs for the weekend.

- No!

- Yes, we've wanted to see the dinosaur park for years.

- No!

- Eric, is something wrong?

- You can't go!

- Can't you take care of yourself for one weekend?

- No, not this weekend.

- Our minds are made up.

We might even get a motel with a water bed.

- You can't do it!

- Stop being so selfish.

We don't wanna stay for Halloween.

Can you guarantee us that something weird

isn't going to be happening here?

- No, I can't.

- Then it's set.

- Wait, it's about our neighbors.

- Is the sound from that satellite dish still bothering you?

- Exactly.

- Well, you told me you would take care

of everything yourself.

I'm just good leave everything up to you.

- I can hardly wait to try that waterbed.

(Eric's father laughing)

- If you stay, I'll buy you one.

(suspenseful music)

- [Children] Trick or treat?

- Wait, there's something you have to hear before you leave!

Wait!

- What is it?

- Uh,

uh, drive carefully.

- We will.

- Take care.

Bring her out.

(car engine revving)

- [Children] Trick or treat?

Trick or treat?

Mommy!

- [Students] Party!

(door knocking)

- [Sherwin] Open the door, it's Sherwin.

(tense music)

Open this door!

- [Students] Party!

- Open the door, people are throwing things at me.

The Halloween party was supposed to start a half hour ago,

and they forgot to unlock the gym.

- Why are all these people here?

- I told them we could have the party here.

- No, you couldn't have picked a worse time.

- Why, are your parents home?

- No, they're gone for the weekend.

- So this is perfect.

Come on, gang, the party's in here.

(exciting music) (students cheering)

(students chatting excitedly)

- It could have been anywhere.

I need to talk to you guys in my bedroom right now,

it's really important.

- [Student] Grab the beer!

(whooping and hollering)

- I know you're not gonna believe this,

but listen carefully.

- Start at the beginning.

- Tell us everything you know.

- Okay.

Sherwin, remember when you showed us

that article in the lunchroom?

Ah!

- We warned you about this.

We told you we could change our appearances at will.

- What do you want?

- Our laser gun for starters,

and we want to know how many people you've told about us.

- [Students] Party!

(upbeat music)

- I can't wait until someone has some of this punch.

- Why, is it that good?

- It's got plastic ice cubes with flies in 'em.

(Sherwin laughing)

- Really, Sherwin.

- Eric would have thought it was funny.

- Oh, I suppose his parents would have, too?

- Where is Eric?

He's missing all the fun.

(Exeter laughing) (punches thudding)

- Ay!

- Answer me!

- I told you, I don't have your gun

and I haven't told anyone about you.

- You know what to do.

(eerie music)

(upbeat music)

- Don't worry, I won't do anything that you wouldn't do.

- Eric, wanna bob for apples?

- No, I don't.

- Come on, it's fun.

Now it's your turn.

- I wonder if I'll have any friends left after tonight.

- You'll have friends left.

They may not be alive,

but they'll be left.

By the way, any new friends?

(glass smashing)

(toy gun zapping)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- Can you tell Eric to come down

to the science lab immediately.

Tell him that I've discovered the full use

of the gun that he brought me.

(laser zapping)

- Hold on, I'll get him.

(fast, upbeat music)

Eric?

Eric?

(toy laser zapping)

Eric!

Eric.

Eric, are you deaf?

Didn't you hear me calling you?

- No, I didn't, Sherwin.

- Sherwin?

- Uh, I mean Ellen.

What did you want?

- Oh, Professor Levelland was on the phone.

He says he wants you to meet at school right now,

he's discovered the use of the gun that you gave him.

- Tell him I'm on my way.

- Eric, aren't you gonna dance with me tonight?

- Maybe later, Sherwin.

- Ow.

He says he'll be right over.

- I've located the gun, it's at his school.

(tense futuristic music)

- Wait, Professor Levelland, something's wrong!

I can't explain it, but--

- All right, sister, your three minutes are up.

- Eric, is that really you?

(Sherwin gasping)

- Real funny, Eric, holding my face down in the tub.

- Don't mind Eric, he hasn't been himself today.

- Where are we going?

- To your school.

- But the party's here,

there won't be any excitement there.

- We'll be the judge of that.

- Wait here.

- [Eric] Look,

now that you know where your gun is,

why don't you let us go?

- Let you go?

We're going to make sure that you haven't

played any tricks on us,

like lying about the location of our laser gun.

- We haven't lied.

- You better not have.

We could kill all of your friends

in your party right now if we wanted to.

What would your parents have to say about that?

(car horn beeping)

Get in.

- Eric, who are these people?

- They're aliens from another planet.

(Sherwin laughing)

- [Sherwin] They think you're from another planet.

- [Students] Party!

(tense music)

- [Lubbock] What do you think I should do?

- Well, you might as well stop, he could radio others.

- [Lubbock] You're becoming an Earth bitch.

(car horn hooting)

- [Exeter] You three in the back

better keep your mouths shut or else.

- Can't you read?

Can I see the registration for this vehicle?

- We need help, these people are kidnapping us.

- They're gonna take us back to their planet.

- Could you run that by me again?

- They said they're kidnapping us,

and they're gonna take us back to their planet.

- Could I see the registration?

- But you don't understand, it's true.

- Listen, just because it's Halloween night,

doesn't mean that you can start running through stop signs.

- But you don't understand, we need help!

We are in great danger.

- [Police Officer] Kid, could you just be quiet?

Now, could I see the registration?

- Ask them for identification,

for passports or alien cards.

- It's not like it sounds, we really do need help.

- Don't let 'em take us away.

- Look, both of you, will you just let me do my job?

Now, my shift ends at midnight,

and then you can play your jokes on someone else.

- Midnight, that's when their ship's coming for them.

Go ahead, detain us until midnight,

see what happens then.

- Officer, I can't seem to find the registration.

- See, I told you they were aliens.

- Look, I may have misplaced my registration once or twice

and that does not make me an alien.

- [Eric] but we've broken the law,

we demand to be arrested.

- Eric, it's not funny anymore.

- Officer, you can't detain us until midnight.

That's when the movie starts.

- The what?

- The 3D movie, It Came From Outer Space.

- And is that where all of you are going?

- That's where I'm going.

- I think I've heard enough.

Now listen.

If you promise not to do this again,

I'm gonna let you go without a citation.

- Thank you, officer.

- No, it's not all right, we wanna go to jail!

- [Together] We wanna go to jail!

- Next Halloween, Palm Springs.

(car horns honking)

- [Lubbock] How did you know about our ship

returning for us at midnight?

- [Eric] That's the witching hour, isn't it?

- Forget it, we don't have time for this.

(car engine spluttering)

(thudding) - [Eric] Run, run!

- Don't worry, no one will believe them.

It's Halloween night.

- We have to hide out until 12.

They have to leave at midnight.

They won't be able to come and look for us.

- Where should we go?

- We can't trust anyone.

- [Sherwin] We can still go to the 3D movie.

It's only a block from here.

- I think for once, you may have had a good idea.

(suspenseful music)

I don't know if we should wait in line or not.

- Well, maybe they'll let us inside.

- Sherwin, watch for their car.

We're gonna go up front

and see if we can get in without waiting.

You've got to let us in!

- Hey, just a minute, you two,

what do you think you're doing?

- [Ellen] We need to get inside.

- Hey, why don't you get in the back of the line

like everybody else?

- [Eric] No, we can't.

- Hey, you two, out to the line for you.

- [Mummy] Excuse me, no cutting in.

Whoa!

- Please help!

Someone's after us.

- What's the problem?

Do you wanna use our phone?

- No, we just need your help so they don't find us.

- [Usher] You say they're following you now?

- No, we don't know what they look like now.

- Well, what do you mean?

How many people are after you?

- [Ellen] Just two.

- You don't know what they look like?

- We knew what they looked like a minute ago.

- [Usherette] That doesn't make any sense.

- The people after us can change their appearance.

- You mean they're in disguise?

(laughing)

- Hey, aliens are after them.

- Aliens?

Aliens that can change their appearance.

(laughing)

- No, I didn't tell you that.

- And they're gonna take 'em back to their planet.

(laughing)

- What did you say?

- Maybe you should come inside.

- Before it's too late.

- Oh no, you're one of them too.

(laughing)

- Eric, Ellen?

Eric!

I just saw their car, they're coming this way.

- Oh no, they found us.

(clattering)

- [Together] Hey, it's the alien!

(laughing)

(suspenseful music)

(dog howling)

- We must recapture them and our gun

before our leader returns.

- And then begin our repopulation of the planet.

- Hands off.

The repopulation doesn't begin until dawn.

- But I've waited 30 years.

- Then you can wait six more hours.

(dog barking)

- We can't stop, we can't trust anyone.

(tense music)

- Forgot your tickets.

('50s-style music)

- [Ellen] What are you doing?

- [Eric] We need to find a place to hide.

- [Ellen] But that's breaking and entering.

- Good, maybe we'll be lucky and get arrested.

Damn, I always leave my car unlocked.

Why couldn't someone else show us the same consideration?

Let's stay down.

Maybe we should get in the back.

- Eric, I'm scared.

- We have to stay hidden.

There's less than and hour to go.

- [Ellen] Well, what will happen if they catch us?

- They'll probably kill us.

That's why we've got to stay together.

We can't be separated, we can't take a chance

on being tricked by them.

- But why are they after you?

- It's because I took a gun that belonged to them

and gave it to Professor Levelland.

They're afraid we'll discover its use

and now they want it back.

- Oh Eric, I think I'm the one who told them

where they could find the gun.

- It's not your fault, you didn't know.

(car alarm blaring)

No, it'll give away our location.

(police siren blaring)

(intense music)

- [Together] Trick or treat?

- [Eric] Maybe Sherwin got away.

- Yeah, see if I ever come back here again.

Look, they gave you two free tickets

for your performances,

but they didn't give me one.

They said I wasn't very convincing as an alien.

- [Together] Ah. (laughing)

(Exeter and Lubbock laughing)

(intense music)

(car horn hooting)

- It's already 11:30.

They'll be coming for us shortly.

- [Eric] How do you know they'll be able to locate you?

- They always do.

- [Sherwin] Maybe you should turn on

your car's high beams.

Maybe use the laser gun.

- [Exeter] Where is our laser gun?

- [Eric] You mean you don't know?

- [Lubbock] We know that you gave it to your professor.

- [Exeter] Professor's probably some government official.

- [Lubbock] What is his location?

- [Eric] He's in the administration building.

- [Sherwin] But his class is way over--

- [Eric] We'll take you there.

- Eric, what are you trying to do?

- We've got to lose them,

then we can sneak back to Professor Levelland's lab

and warn him.

- No talking.

- Are you sure we're going the right way?

- There it is.

Now!

- [Sherwin] Now where are we going?

- To the science lab.

- [Sherwin] You're not being very nice to your friends.

- They're not my friends.

- They're not my friends either.

- [Sherwin] Well, whose friends are they?

(suspenseful music)

- Think we will be able to locate them in time?

- I think so.

- What are you two doing out here?

- We're here for the Halloween party.

- You don't look like students.

That's your car parked over there?

- Yes, it is.

- [Security Guard] Well, you can't leave it there,

you're gonna have to move it.

- We don't have time for this.

- Wait a minute, where are you going?

I have a job to do.

- So do we.

(groaning) (squelching)

- Professor Levelland?

- Eric, just in time.

- You've got to hide.

- [Levelland] But I can't stop now, I'm almost finished.

- No, you don't understand.

- Just look where I am.

Now look, the power of the atom has been channeled before

but never with control like this.

The force of propulsion would make space travel

to galaxies light years beyond the solar system possible.

- You have to stop now, we can finish this later.

- [Levelland] But I'm on the last line,

I wouldn't stop now if my life depended on it.

- It does.

The people that own that gun are coming for it.

- Oh, I suppose they deserve a share of the glory.

- We can discuss this later.

(tense music)

Oh no.

(dog howling)

- I'd like you to meet my neighbor.

- Do you speak English?

- We're going to kill you.

- You've mastered the language very well.

- Watch out, you're too close to 'em.

- Look, let me show you what I've been working on.

Your gun gave me the idea for this formula.

I seriously believe that space travel

to other galaxies is possible.

Look, I'm ready to complete the equation,

you can watch.

I'm sorry, I didn't ask where you were from.

Are you Romanian?

Bulgarians?

- We are Visitants.

- I don't think I've ever met Visitants before.

- We travel through the universe in search of planets

that are capable of sustaining life.

We land there, transform into the planet's life form,

and function in their society as they would.

- We then collect our data secretly,

and inform the leader when living conditions

are acceptable for our race,

then if all goes as planned,

we stage an invasion

and total repopulation of the planet.

- Eric, you live in a strange neighborhood.

(spacecraft whooshing)

- They're here, there's no time to waste.

We want our laser gun.

- Protect yourself.

- We're not amused.

(thudding)

(groaning)

- Don't, you'll kill him!

- No he won't, not when he's having fun with him.

(groaning)

(clattering)

(thudding)

(spacecraft whooshing)

- You okay?

- [Lubbock] No time to waste.

Make it snappy!

- Welcome to your new home.

- Eric, you should have told us about this earlier.

I wouldn't have asked you for the gun

if I knew what okay trouble it would get you into.

- And I wouldn't have bothered you

about the Halloween party.

- [Sherwin] And I wouldn't have yelled at you

when you were in front of their house,

or brought all those people over for the party,

or argued with the policeman, or fired my gun at them.

- Silence, fools!

- You four will make a fine example

of the last of the Earth's race.

- A young couple,

an adult male,

and a large amphibian.

Soon, the earth will turn cold, barren, and frigid,

just like our planet.

- Just like our women.

- This gun must have amazing powers

for all the trouble you've gone through to get it back.

- Go ahead, honey, get the gun.

- Now we can use that power to escape.

- Oh, he doesn't know everything.

- I've had this gun for a week,

and I know more about it than you do.

(Exeter mumbling)

- [Levelland] I know it can saw anything in half.

- He knows it can saw things in half.

- Quick kids, open the door,

we've gotta get out of here.

It's a nice place to visit,

but I'm not planning to stay.

(Ellen screaming)

(laughing)

- I see you've met our boarder.

(alien roaring)

(Ellen screaming)

- Eric!

No!

Oh Eric!

(Ellen screaming)

- Stop right now.

(laughing)

(beeping)

- We're taking off.

- [Eric] Elle, hurry!

- Now hurry.

- That way.

(creature roaring) (screaming)

(creature growling)

(Ellen screaming)

- Jump.

- No, I can't, we're already off the ground.

(Ellen screaming)

- Professor Levelland, hurry!

(wind roaring)

(clock chiming)

(school bell ringing)

- I'm sorry kids, your teacher didn't show up for work.

Class is canceled today.

A substitute will take over tomorrow.

- What do you think happened?

- I don't know.

I don't think we'll ever know.

(tense futuristic music)

- Damned Halloween vandals.

- I think we'd all be better off

if we never tell anyone what happened here.

- But what about the invasion they were planning?

- We ruined their plans when we escaped.

Their secrecy was too important.

They're probably afraid that we warned everyone,

and we'll be ready for their attack.

- What do you think happened to Professor Levelland?

- I wish I knew.

- Eric, you want me to come over tonight?

I mean, with your parents out of town and all,

I don't know if you should be alone.

- Maybe.

I'll call you later.

- This is one Halloween I'll never forget.

(electric rock music)

- Eric, there you are.

- We're very angry with you.

Look at this mess.

- Yeah, I see it.

- Can't we leave you alone for a minute?

Don't you have any sense of responsibility?

- Okay, I'm sorry.

- I bet you had all this planned out in advance.

The minute we leave the house,

you think it's time to celebrate.

- And we warned you about having parties

before when we're gone.

- I said I was sorry.

- Well, sorry isn't good enough this time.

- Your dad and I have decided to ground you.

- Ground me?

- Yes.

We thought we could treat you like an adult,

but I guess we were wrong.

You're grounded to your room every night

right after school for a week.

- Starting now.

- Maybe it'll knock some sense into you.

(sultry music)

- Hi, Ellen.

No, I'm okay.

My parents are back from their trip.

Yeah, and guess what?

They grounded me for a week.

No, they don't know, they're just upset

about the mess left behind from the party.

I agree, they should have grounded Sherwin instead.

So I won't be able to see you tonight.

Well, I'm sorry too.

Well, that sounds like a lot of fun.

I can hardly wait.

Yeah.

Well, things should be settling down around here,

so maybe they'll let me out in less than a week.

Yeah, me too.

I'll see you in school tomorrow.

Bye.

- [Levelland] Eric?

Eric?

(static hissing) (eerie whistling)

Eric, do you hear me?

- Professor Levelland!

- [Levelland] Eric, space travel

was everything that I thought it would be.

I've flown to distances that I didn't think were possible,

and I think that this is only the beginning.

I'll keep in contact with you every day,

and tell you everything I learned.

Some day, you'll be able to put all of it to use,

and space travel beyond your solar system

will be possible within your lifetime.

- You know, I can't even decide

if I should give Eric the souvenirs we bought him.

- Oh no! (crying)

- Oh no.

- I know what you mean.

Sometimes, I think Eric will never grow up.

- Well, eventually, I think he'll settle down,

then someday, I think he'll go really far.

(eerie futuristic music)

- [Levelland] And space travel beyond your solar system

will be possible within your lifetime.

(upbeat rock and roll music)

- Hi, I'm Lubbock.

- And I'm Exeter.

- And we'd like to invite you to the concession stand.

- Where the popcorn's always popping.

(popcorn popping)

(Lubbock laughing)

- We'll see you here.

(lighthearted music)
