➱ STORYLINE:

"Coneheads" is a sci-fi comedy that brings the beloved Saturday Night Live characters to the big screen. The film follows Beldar and Prymaat Conehead, two aliens from the planet Remulak, who crash-land on Earth. Disguised as a suburban family, they attempt to blend in while awaiting rescue. However, their unusual behavior and, well, their cone-shaped heads make for hilarious situations as they try to adapt to human life. Along the way, they discover the quirks of Earth and the importance of family.


➱ STAFF REVIEW:

"Coneheads" captures the zany humor of the SNL sketches and expands on the Conehead lore. With Dan Aykroyd and Jane Curtin reprising their iconic roles, the film maintains the spirit of the original sketches. Directed by Steve Barron, it combines sci-fi elements with classic fish-out-of-water comedy. While it may not be a cinematic masterpiece, it's a fun and nostalgic trip for fans of the Coneheads.
