A crew of Martians overhears a radio broadcast of Orson Welle's _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.

Movie Quote(s):
- [after crash-landing] Blaznee: Well, let's see. We got a torqued-out digi-framus, our mega-spaz redundancy pile is on the blink, and it looks like we bruised our boo-boo.
-
Deputy Pillsbury: No license, no registration, no plates, no headlights, no taillights, no WHEELS, and I caught you going 3000 miles per hour. That's [punches on calculator] Deputy Pillsbury: 2945 miles per hour in excess of the posted limit. Blaznee: Great. There goes my insurance.
-
Blaznee: Kids, 3D and driving don't mix.
-
Captain Bipto: Meet us at the Wrenchmuller farm. Bipto out. Blaznee: Hey, where do you guys grow your wrenchmullers?
-
Captain Bipto: We did win, didn't we? Blaznee: No, but if we think fast enough we might just live to lie about it.
Movie Trivia:

-
Many of the special effects shots were done "in camera". Meaning they were composed on the raw film.
-
Star Ariana Richards received an "Introducing" credit although it was her fifth feature film role.
-
Kathy introduces her three 'cousins' as "Clutch", "Spinner" and "Paddlefoot"; these are the names of the main characters of the cult classic cartoon "Clutch Cargo".
