Original subtitles

Black, a perfect black.

For eons, there was a silence.

Such silence was impenetrable and universal,

all consuming and unchallenged in its authority.

Nothing stirred, and nothing would.

It had been so that all was perfect and still

since the start of creation itself.

And yet, it was simply in a blinding, instantaneous flash

that the silence was broken.

The universe was born, and there would never be a moment

of total silence ever again.

And it was only with the passage of time

that the first planets began to form.

It was on one such planet

that life too eventually formed, planet Earth.

With great canyons and valleys for creatures to inhabit,

the world began transforming in unprecedented ways,

until eventually, man was born.

By the 20th century, man had long oversaw his own progress.

Electricity, the automobile,

the telephone,

atomic bombs, then, a man in outer space.

Evolution was ours.

By the 20th century, we had determined

that no other planet in our solar system was fit for life.

However, this determination does not exclude other planets,

the many, many planets buried in the furthest recesses

of outer space, places free from human awareness.

Could there be life out there?

Could there be life beyond our solar system?

And if so, could they pose a threat to us?

What's your favorite monster, Eddie?

Um, say Frankenstein.

What about you?

Wolfman.

He's cool.

I like him.

Wanna put that right there?

And, finished!

Looks nice.

Can we do another one?

You sure?

It's kinda late, isn't it?

Yeah.

Okay.

Sorry to break up the party,

but it's time for bed, Cindy.

Aw!

It's okay, we can do another one tomorrow night,

all right?

It's Friday night and you're putting puzzles together

with your sister?

Nothing to do, I guess.

You could always come watch "Rawhide" on the television

with your father and I.

It's about to start, Helen!

Okay, dear!

Think I'll just stay here and read some comics.

Well, the offer still stands if you change your mind.

Night, Mom.

And that was Big Todd McGee

And what y'all doing out tonight, Beutter County?

Wait, Frank just handed me some adverts.

Now, for a special announcement,

folks, may I have the pleasure of unveiling

to all of you,

the grand opening of Dario's Pizza.

That's right, traditional, genuine, Italian pizza

just down...

Jesus, Cullpepper!

Sorry.

Well, are you ready?

Ready for what?

It's Friday night!

Did you forget already? - Forget what?

"The Atomic Creature" playing at The Exeter tonight.

Remember?

I just feel like staying in the night.

Well, what do you want me to tell Mary Beth?

You know Mary Beth would never go see a picture like that.

Eddie Joseph Makielski!

How do you know which kind of picture I wanna go see?

♪ The moon is so bright

Are you going to the Out of the World Dance next Friday?

Well, Donald Gleason asked me to go.

Oh.

But I haven't said yes yet.

Oh, why is that?

Well, he's not the one I want to go with.

Hmm. - What about you?

If you're interested, I mean, I'm going.

I don't wanna be a burden or anything.

I mean, I like... - Mm.

Like, I mean, I don't want to be like a problem,

but would you ever-

Who cares about some crummy dance?

We're gonna be late and get stuck with some lousy seats.

Fine, we'll take the shortcut

through Farmer Gibbon's place,

save us some time.

Fine.

Evening, Professor.

Evening, Mary Beth, boys.

♪ Oh, oh, darling ♪

♪ Soft, gentle breeze ♪ Curious.

Professor Farnsworth speaking.

I hope I'm not interrupting your evening,

Professor Farnsworth.

Oh, that's quite all right, Jean.

Mark Taylor just phoned me from the observatory,

and he said that he saw a peculiar incoming object

through the telescope.

And I thought you ought to know.

I saw it as well.

Probably just a meteoroid.

Possibly.

But he insisted its movements were entirely erratic.

See if you can track it.

Maybe we can get a group together Monday

and search for any remnants.

Sure thing, Professor. - All right, then.

See you Monday.

So what did the Mrs. have to say?

I've been married to that woman for over 20 years.

She makes the same damn meal every Friday night,

Chipped beef on toast and stuffed celery.

Sounds like she needs some new recipes.

You wanna know what she's making for dessert?

Frosted ham ribbon loaf.

You wanna stop by my place tonight, Sheriff, for dinner?

Why?

What's Maybelle making?

I bet it's something good.

Her slow cooked pot roast with carrots

and potatoes garnish.

Fill you up like a tick.

Well, I'd love to Tommy,

but if the Mrs. found out I have supper with y'all,

I'd be sleeping on the Chesterfield for a week.

Just so you know, Sheriff, the offer stands anytime.

That's awful kind of you, Tommy.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

The commies have finally done it!

It's a God damn invasion!

Who's out there?

What was that?

Was that Gibbons?

Probably just an owl

No, I think I heard it too.

You know that drunk has a shotgun, right?

Yeah, I'm aware.

What the shit is this?

Ah, shit, he spotted us.

God damn commies are invading!

You got five seconds to get off my land

and 10 seconds to get out of my country

before I shove two barrels

of American freedom up your head!

Can you see him? - Yeah, I can see him.

He's screaming, but not at us.

Well, who's he screaming at then?

I don't know.

He seems pretty worked up about it.

What the shit Jesus?

Who's out there?

The hell kind of mutant cosmonaut are you?

Oh, shit.

All right.

Professor Farnsworth,

there was a man, and then, he had a pack.

And he was near Gibbons on a farm and it was night.

Okay, calm down!

Now, what's all this excitement about?

Farmer Gibbons is dead.

You gotta call Sheriff Wilcox now!

Dead?

Well, what happened to him?

His head is just blown clean off!

By a creature from another world.

Look, we don't know what we saw,

but someone or something just shot him.

Now, this wouldn't be some sort of prank,

Mary Beth? - No, honest!

Just-

You wouldn't want me calling your folks.

Call Sheriff Wilcox, please!

There's something strange going on here!

What are you waiting for?

Okay, they saw what now?

Clarence Gibbon?

Well, I admit, that damn drunk's as crazy as a dog

in a hubcap factory.

But I reckon he was just taking pot-shots at coons again.

I think you have some excited kids with wild imaginations.

Look, I got Tommy out on another call right now,

but if it makes you feel better,

I'll have him swing by

and take a look when he's done with that en, all right?

Go on and send them kids home.

Tommy, come in.

Yeah, Rossy here, come back.

Listen, I need you to swing by the Gibbon's place

and check on that old fool.

He's shooting that damn shotgun again.

Roger that, Sheriff.

I just pulled into the Marko place out here.

I'll get on that as soon as I get done

with barnyard mystery.

Standing by.

I ain't never gonna get home for dinner tonight.

Lord above.

Why?

And my chickens!

What's this European Clydehopper up to now?

Mr. Marko?

Mr. Marko?

Hey, Sheriff!

It's Deputy, thank you.

You made a call on the Sheriff's Office?

No, sheriff, I didn't call, no.

My wife, she called.

Okay, and what is this pertaining to?

This guy, guy is killing my chickens.

He's ripping the head off.

Your chicken.

Who did this?

This guy.

He look like a underwater Olympic gymnast.

And he did what now?

Killing my chicken with like instrument.

An instrument?

Yeah, it's not like tuba, Sheriff.

It's more like bicycle pump, okay?

It look like a, it's got a pointy thing on the end.

It shoot like red light, maybe blue light.

No, Sheriff, it's red light.

I don't think the color matters, sir.

No problem, okay?

I'll take care of it, eh? - No, no, no.

Wait, sir, please!

I will investigate the situation on your property.

Please, you can rest here.

I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Are you sure?

Yes, sir.

Okay, well, hold on, Sheriff.

Hold on!

Let me put the gun away.

I'm gonna go with you, okay?

I have Fox Deluxe, eh?

No, I cannot partake while I'm on duty, sir.

I appreciate the offer.

Oh, okay, if you're sure.

I wait here.

I drink.

When you come back, we drink together, huh?

Thank you, Mr. Marko.

I will get right back to you.

Okay, Sheriff.

Good luck, eh?

All right, thank you.

And it's Deputy, thank you.

What?

Good luck, Sheriff!

There's nothing we can do, Eddie.

Yeah, we'll just let the grownups handle this one.

Besides, do you wanna get vaporized or something?

I don't want anyone to get vaporized, Chuck!

Who knows who could be next?

It could be us, friends, family.

You saw what happened to Gibbons, and he had a shotgun!

I wouldn't mind if he vaporized my step daddy.

Chuck, you need to take this a little more seriously.

Well, what are we supposed to do then, huh?

Kindly ask them to not decapitate the good people

of Beutter County?

That's enough, Chuck!

He's right though, Eddie.

What can we do?

I don't know.

We don't do something now,

there won't be nobody left to do something later.

Excuse me, sir?

Can you stand up, please?

Sir, I'm gonna have to ask you to turn around, please.

We're gonna have a little talk here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

I need you to put that away.

I need you to put that away now,

so we can have a discussion,

like two normal gentlemen.

Thank you, sir.

I appreciate that.

Now, is that a dead chicken you have there?

What is going on here?

Do you understand me now?

What are you wearing on your head?

Boy, are you some sort of pilot or something?

Did you have a crash? whoa!

My bowling hand!

Why'd you have to do that, mister?

Gibbon!

Is that you?

Poor bastard.

Drunken hillbillies

and shotguns are not a good combination.

Even a hillbilly like you couldn't be that drunk.

Curious.

Jesus, Mary, and-

Joseph?

You're fourth in line right now.

I've been getting whack a doodle calls all damn night!

Now, you sit tight.

I'll send Rossy by just as soon as I can.

Okay.

All right.

Okay.

You tell Erdle May I said bye to you.

Rossy, come back now.

Rossy, you out there?

Tommy, pick up the damn radio!

Going after him, aren't you, Sheriff?

Going after who, Hank?

The God damn spaceman!

It's like I told Tommy earlier, I saw a green man

with a fish bowl on his head, digging the hole off the back

of Montgomery Lawson's place.

Then, he jumped into some sort

of flying space capsule and flew off!

Hank, I believe the only thing you've seen tonight is

the bottom of a whiskey bottle.

Well, I do like to drink a little, Sheriff.

Okay, a lot.

But I know what I saw!

Well, what you say is true, make room in there.

I always get my man.

Ain't no man, Sheriff!

Well, hot dog.

Ruby Jean?

What a God damn waste.

Did you do this to Ruby Jean?

You bastard!

Curious.

Remarkable!

They travel the universe seeking new life forms!

They're explorers!

Jean?

Jean!

Jean!

Jean!

Jean!

I'll get you out, Jean.

Hold on tight, Jean!

Jean!

Rossy, come in.

Tommy, come in.

Jean!

They're not explorers.

They're conquerors!

Wait one moment, Jean!

I'll get you out of there.

Hold tight, Jean.

I will return.

I'm going.

I'm going with you.

You're outta your minds.

Then stay.

Well, I'm obviously going with you.

Professor?

What are you doing out here?

And what was that bright light I saw?

There's no time to explain.

There's a spaceship from another world in that clearing,

and if I'm correct,

they intend to take over the Earth!

Spaceship?

You're starting to sound like Gibbons.

You've been sampling his corn liquor?

This is no time for jokes.

We need to act fast!

What on earth?

I can assure you, Sheriff,

that sound you're hearing is not of this earth.

Now, we must move quickly!

Well, lead the way.

Is that Gibbons?

What's left of him.

Where in the hell's his head?

You haven't been listening. Sheriff.

Under no circumstances must we allow that ship

to leave this planet.

And if I'm correct,

they won't be able to.

Well, what's that supposed to be?

I think it's some sort of fuel cell.

I'm not gonna wait and find out.

No, no, it's too risky!

From what you've told me,

that ship is nothing but bad news in every direction.

My assistant, Jean Lockyear, is on that craft.

Okay, Wernher von Braun,

what are we gonna do about it?

We need to come up with a plan

to get that alien off that

ship.

Quick, Sheriff, take your shot!

We may not get another chance!

Only need one shot, Professor.

Sheriff!

Professor!

You must get that fuel cell!

Get that fuel cell!

Go for it, Eddie!

I've got you covered.

- Why do I gotta go? - You're faster than me.

And besides, I got a supinated gait.

What does your front gate gotta do with anything?

What? - What?

You said front gate? - I'll do it.

What? - No, I'll do it.

I got it, okay?

I got it.

I'll distract him.

On three.

One,

two,

three!

Oh, sh-

Chuck!

No!

Eddie!

What are we gonna do, Eddie?

Where's it at?

Where's my slingshot?

Where's it at?

Okay, okay, okay.

We got one shot, okay.

Okay, I need another rock or something.

Hurry!

Here!

Take this.

Eddie, hurry!

You must act now.

Steady.

Come on.

Steady.

I hope you enjoyed your time here in Beutter County,

but now, it's time for you to go.

Bingo.

Nice shot, Sheriff.

Couldn't have done it without the help of these kids.

Where do you think he came from, Professor?

He came from another world, Eddie.

But he underestimated our ability to fight back.

Come, Sheriff,

let's get Jean off that ship.

Poor Chuck.

I'm sorry for your loss, Eddie.
