Mars Attacks!
A fleet of Martian spacecraft surrounds the world’s major cities and all of humanity waits to see if the extraterrestrial visitors have, as they claim, “come in peace.” U.S. President James Dale receives assurance from science professor Donald Kessler that the Martians’ mission is a friendly one. But when a peaceful exchange ends in the total annihilation of the U.S. Congress, military men call for a full-scale nuclear retaliation.

I loved this as a kid when it first came out. Now… meh.
The score is great, and it has one of the most star-studded casts of any film I’ve ever seen, but the humour hasn’t really aged with me. It feels like this is the cheesy-sci-fi equivalent of Scream, but it’s nowhere near as sharp as that.
