Four everyday suburban guys come together as an excuse to escape their humdrum lives one night a week. But when they accidentally discover that their town has become overrun with aliens posing as ordinary suburbanites, they have no choice but to save their neighborhood – and the world – from total extermination.
Chaos erupts in this absurdly loud suburban nightmare where neighborhood watch meetings turn into frantic battles against extraterrestrial imposters. Expect a frantic, joke-heavy collision of midlife crises and ridiculous sci-fi spectacle.
