Spaced Invaders
“For years, science has speculated on the existence of intelligent life in space... Now, there is living proof there is no such thing.”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Confused aliens land during Halloween and mistake the evening's costumes for a much friendlier diplomatic situation. The deliberate family comedy runs on rubber masks, misunderstandings and the cheerful possibility that an invasion might mostly involve being very bad at directions.

Synopsis and movie facts
A crew of Martians overhears a radio broadcast of Orson Welles' "War of the Worlds" coming from Earth, and, thinking the Martian fleet is attacking Earth, they land their broken-down ship in a backwater mid-American town. As luck would have it, they land on Halloween and get mistaken for trick-or-treaters. Comedy ensues as the Martians try to get taken seriously.
