So it might be that expectations were low, but I really enjoyed this film. Some of the aliens are doing a few old actor impersonations.

I saw the coming attractions for this and went to see it on opening day. IT was not funny, and the best joke in the coming attractions wasnt even in the movie.

Don't believe the negative reviews! This is a really great film.

A spaceship of incompetent Martians arrive in an Illinois farming community following a rebroadcast of The War of The Worlds. They're late to a failed invasion and assume Earth to be the target.

I guess people are looking for I don't know what in a movie. The rating for this movie is way too low.

OK. This isn't the best movie I've ever seen.

Feeble brained Martains happen to hear a Halloween re-broadcast of Orson Welles' legendary radio production of "The War of the Worlds". They, of course, don't know that it's fiction, and think they're hearing legitimate orders to invade planet Earth.

This movie is to Halloween what the hilarious "Christmas Story" is to Christmas: both are relatively low-budget, no-big-name-stars type films...and both are two of the absolute greatest and funniest movies available, both seasonal CLASSICS!!!

I understand many will think "Spaced Invaders" a lame farce about little green men trying to take over Earth; but believe me, compared to "The Sorcerer's Apprentice," which I have just finished watching with my family, "Spaced Invaders," along with "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" and "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids", makes me weep with nostalgia for how low Disney has fallen in quality. While "Spaced Invaders" is the film of least quality of the trio I mentioned, it nonetheless has a cheeky sense of humor, with a wonderful script and actors (er, voice-over artists for the Martians) who make this film highly watchable (and with no lame CGI effects of dragons or fireballs to ruin the fun!
