				"Ah, pigs. An 
				omnivorous domesticated cloven-hooved vertebrate that defecates
				in the same place it consumes." - Prymatt Conehead 
				Why watch this? It's 
				outrageous, yet this well-done movie is still old-school funny! 
				Plot Summary: The 
				Coneheads, a family of aliens with cone-shaped heads, crash-land 
				on Earth during a scouting mission. While stranded and waiting 
				for retrieval, they attempt to adapt to human customs and start 
				a family. Despite their unusual appearance and behaviors, they 
				find life on Earth to be surprisingly enjoyable.  Dad's Preview: 
				The Coneheads made their debut on SNL way back in Season 2. 
				Fans loved them! Beldar and 
				Prymaat always cracked me up with their consuming of mass 
				quantities of fried chicken embryos and beer... and their naughty time 
				with the buzzing senso-rings. Years later, this surprising gem 
				was made, and it explains everything. It simply works, partly 
				due to the efforts of several third generation SNL'ers, like 
				Farley, Spade, Lovitz and Hartman. Mebs! Mebs!
