Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTo make the Martian Girl costume as smooth as possible, it had no zippers or buttons on it. Lisa Marie had to be sewn into it every day before filming of her scenes in it could even begin.
- GoofsThe shape of the President's tie changes several times during his "Little people... why can't we all just... get along?" speech to the Martian Leader. This is an in-joke reference to a similar continuity error with Jack Nicholson in the film A Few Good Men (1992).
- Quotes
Grandma Florence Norris: They blew up Congress! Ha ha ha ha!
- Crazy creditsA Martian spaceship flies around the opening Warner Brothers logo.
- Alternate versionsA television ad for the film had Marsha Dale saying (over the decision of what to do about the Martians): "Kick the crud out of 'em!" which was an edit to what she said in its theatrical version: "Kick the crap out of 'em!"

Featured review
I went into this with 0 expectations. I was laughing through the entire thing. Really great parody of alien invasion films and hilarious dialogue throughout. Just a really well done film overall.
