Coneheads Trailers

A pair of aliens arrive on Earth to prepare for invasion, but crash instead. With enormous cone-shaped heads, robotlike walks and an appetite for toilet paper, aliens Beldar and Prymatt don't exactly blend in with the population of Paramus, N.J. But for some reason, everyone believes them when they say they're from France.

LOVE CONEHEADS!!! grew up watching & loving this super Happy feelgood Crazy Comedy with the legendary DAN AYKROYD on great fun form,the CONEHEADS are a family of Aliens who land in America & try to fit into Suburban life & it's great fun. This is just a cheerful Happy Fantasy comedy & that's fine that's all it's supposed to be!!! Dan Aykroyd is always great to watch I'm a huge fan & GHOSTBUSTERS 1&2 & DRAGNET are some of my favourite movies of all time & CONEHEADS would fit in there too along with Spies like us!!! Great fun just enjoy & smile

Two aliens with pointed heads, who are meant to be enslaving Earth, instead crash-land and decide to pretend they are citizens of America. The biggest enemy of the visitors is an immigration agent who cares not whether they are intergalactic or terrestrial aliens, so long as they are not meant to be working in America. The decision of the Coneheads to integrate in American society is enhanced further when the female agent is delivered of a baby girl, whom they want to be accepted as an ordinary American child. How do people with pointed heads and three rows of teeth attempt to "fit in" with those around them (especially when their daughter becomes a teenager who must compete with the rules of her peers)? An extremely well written, funny and even heart-warming film. Worth watching time and again, because something new will strike the viewer with every re-watching. Fantastic performances from many talented actors. Watch out for the fireworks display, the birth, the diving and the flash photography scenes. Excellent. Watch and enjoy.

I literally laughed at the thought of Dan Aykroyd and Jane Curtin were putting on such a high pitched alien voice. They were good but it got literally annoying throughout the film. Lucky enough, Michelle Burke who played the daughter used her own nice voice so it wouldn't be quite irritating for all of them to use that silly voice.I was so thrilled to see Chris Farley among the other SNL stars! It was too bad that his character and Connie didn't make love properly as she kept sucking his lips like a vacuum cleaner. I really thought the writers should've rethought the whole movie because some of the ways the 'aliens' make, they actually would make you cringe and feel disgusted after. If you care to see a OK but messed up movie, be my guest!

Aliens with cone shaped craniums (including Dan Aykroyd) come to Earth to observe everyday life.I am not sure which Saturday Night Live sketch was the first to be transformed into a movie, but at some point it became more and more common, and in the 1990s it seemed they could turn just about anything into a film. Some were hugely successful ("Wayne's World") while others have been largely forgotten ("It's Pat" and "Stuart Saves His Family" come to mind).I suppose "Coneheads" falls somewhere in the middle. By no means was it a flop, but I feel like it never really had a strong popularity. The best thing that came out of it was probably the soundtrack. But, perhaps wisely, the film is also not very ambitious and instead just wants to show a young woman coming of age and trying to be accepted by her peers. Not a bad little theme.
