Synopsis

One family’s satellite television dish accidentally becomes a garbage disposal unit for a distant alien civilization in this sci-fi screamer. After the Puttermans install the new system, it begins receiving powerful transmissions from deep space. Eventually, a hideous alien life form is also beamed down into their household. One of the Puttermans has an idea about what’s happening to them, but since he’s just a kid, no one’s paying attention.

Why aren't there more fans of this on mubi?! It's a fun monster movie that doesn't cop out in the end. The art direction is clever and the script is super weird. I love how boardly drawn each character is. I look forward to returning to this flick.
