Coneheads

• Comedy
• Science Fiction

A peculiar suburban comedy unfolds as Beldar and Prymatt Conehead, aliens disguised (poorly) as Americans, attempt to integrate into small-town New Jersey while awaiting retrieval. Their rigid adherence to Remulakian customs – including a diet of metal and an unwavering belief in societal order – clashes hilariously with 1990s human behavior, yet their earnest desire for normalcy unexpectedly endears them to their neighbors. The film distinguishes itself through its deadpan delivery and the gently satirical look at conformity, framing the Coneheads not as invaders, but as outsiders navigating the complexities of assimilation with robotic grace. The focus isn’t on a looming invasion, but the quietly absurd situations born from cultural misunderstandings, offering a cheerful and ultimately comforting exploration of what it means to belong.
