I remember my mom got this back in the day. The people that sold the video kept calling us wondering how we liked it. I told her to tell them it was kinda "korny" (the name of the alien) but they didn't laugh.
The time the alien kid saves each morning by going to bed fully-dressed allows him to get into dangerous situations involving sexually predatory older men that much sooner than if he put on clothes before going out the door.
What was the deal with the lightning? Was the alien traveling through time and space? If so, why did he keep traveling to places where perverts kept trying to abduct him?
If the alien had the technology to travel through time and space, why didn't he wise up after the 3rd or 4th time he teleported, or flew, or whatever?
If aliens landed on earth, I hope we would try to communicate with them in a more civilized way, like in Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind.
I can't believe you found it... my friend has an entire collection of those videos... "Feeling Scared, Acting Brave" featuring Alan Thicke was the tops.
I saw that video in first grade for one of those safety class type things. I wasn't scared by the abductors, but that freakin alien gave me nightmares. Just seeing his face again gave me a thrill of terror.
OH my god! My mom ordered these videos AND pamphlets when I was small and made me take them to school to "spread the word" aka "spread the nightmare" of that kid's face. I got rid of them years ago but couldn't remember the name of the series. I've spent so long googling "alien who eats goldfish" etc. I'm happy I finally found it, yet so creeped out at the same time
I should be wary of police officers; they may be wearing stolen badges!
ReplyDeleteoh god. I thought I'd never see this movie again. thank you...?
ReplyDeletethe worst part is that park bush shaking so violently.
the best part is definitely this song, though!

ReplyDeleteI don't think that's an alien...I think it is a sea monkey.

ReplyDeleteWhy the HELL didn't anyone tell me being abducted was so much fun?
ReplyDeleteIf only I had seen this before it was too late...

Is this kid autistic?

ReplyDeleteWell, if you're an alien kid.... now you know what not to do.
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong I think this song is catchy as hell?
ReplyDeletemajor autism zone

ReplyDeleteNote: My captcha word is "pervert".
So, let me get this straight. It's kind of like Quantum Leap, but in order to leap, the alien child needs to get molested?
