When Stanley (Gerrit Graham) goes outside to adjust his family's satellite dish, a living, organic alien monster-cum-garbage-disposal is zapped into the TV sets in Stanley's household. The monster pops out of the sets once in awhile to grab a quick snack of anyone within reach. Hopefully, the young boy in the family -- the only one close to normal in the house -- might have a solution to their problem. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

Critic Reviews

Mike McGranaghan, Aisle Seat
I know that I, for one, will never look at my satellite dish the same way again. On second thought, yes I will.
-
Felix Vasquez Jr., Cinema Crazed
It's at least worthy of a watch if only for its sense of humor that teeters back and forth between surreal and idiotic.

Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
The trashy film is made for those who like bad films.

Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
Fairly ridiculous mid-80's sci-fi horror comedy casserole.
-
Alex Sandell, Juicy Cerebellum
Oogly-boogly! Even as a horror fan I hated this crap-fest.
