Pod People

The Pod People (Los nuevos extraterrestres), also known as Extra-Terrestrial Visitors and The Unearthling, is a 1983 French-Spanish science fiction film directed by Juan Piquer Simón.

The film's original draft was meant to be a straightforward horror film about an evil alien on a murderous rampage, but the producers demanded script alterations in order to cash in on the success of Steven Spielberg's E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial by featuring a child and a cute, lovable alien.
