"Chaos reigns supreme in this inventive comedy" (Leonard Maltin) about a quartet of oddball aliens who take a wrong turn and crash-land their glorified RV spaceship on a freeway on Earth! "The gags are flung at you like darts!" (The Washington Post) in this "bracingly impolite, parodistic comedy" (LA Herald-Examiner) that proves - hilariously - that the mind is a terrible thing in space. (official distributor synopsis)
