Coneheads 🎥 1993 Movie Info

Plot Summary

Upon discovering a UFO in American airspace, the National Guard sends fighter jets to investigate, who fire on the unresponsive craft and cause it to crash into the Atlantic Ocean, near Manhattan. The aliens from the planet Remulak, Beldar and his wife Prymaat, survive aboard the ship. Assigned by Highmaster Mintot, Beldar was to conquer the earth for Planet Remulak. Beldar becomes an appliance repairman, and upon discovering his undocumented status, his boss Otto gets him a false identity from local gangsters, which quickly alerts the INS. Ambitious INS agent Gorman Seedling and his sycophantic assistant Eli Turnbull unsuccessfully attempt to capture the couple.

Prymaat informs Beldar she is pregnant. The Coneheads are told that a rescue ship will not be arriving for many years, and despite their odd appearance and metallic voices, they attempt to blend in with human society. Beldar and Prymaat save a lot of money by moving to the suburbs. After their daughter Connie’s birth, they adopt the surname Conehead, buy a home, and move to suburban Paramus, New Jersey, where Beldar opens a driving school. Meanwhile, Gorman terminates his pursuit of the Coneheads after getting a promotion, but a U.S. Senate inquiry, citing the heavy expense, demands that the case be properly concluded.

The now-teenaged Connie, who has grown up among Earth’s norms and culture, wants to fit in with her peers, though her father greatly objects, especially when she begins seeing auto mechanic Ronnie Bradford. Gorman and Eli track the Coneheads to their home, posing as Jehovah’s Witnesses to enter. During the conversation, Prymaat discovers their communication device to Remulak is beeping and notifies Beldar that ‘the Big Phone’ has contacted him, causing him to eject the two promptly. He is then notified of their approaching rescue vessel. After Connie is told of their imminent rescue.
