                    "Lipz'r Flappin,'" the music track under the closing credits was written and performed by a high school band out of Glen Ridge, New Jersey called The Sophisticuffs. The organist on the track is Wes Miles who is now the singer for the indie-rock band Ra Ra Riot. The bass and vocals are by Ezra Koening who is a member of Vampire Weekend.

                  Fabulous!
                  The lame 1950s B-Movie "Killers From Space" starring the hunky Peter Graves gets re-dubbed as a plot by aliens to turn Earthlings gay. What's interesting is that the guys who directed this are straight, so there are shots taken at everybody with equal derision. There's something in this for everybody! The visual and verbal gags come at breakneck speed so even if you find that 60% of the jokes are funny, you'll still be laughing several times a minute. It's zaniness at its most extreme (my favorite scene was a hilarious modern alien dance that included great reaction shots by the cast of the 1950s film), so be prepared to put yourself in "silly" mode. Those who hate the slickness of Hollywood films today will especially love this.

                  The DVD also has some nice features including some very funny commentary.
