The Beast with a Million Eyes

(1955)

This loser at the game of life lives 45 minutes from the middle of noplace with his mediocre daughter, his pissy, bitched-off wife, and a mute who chops their wood for them and they must eat the shit or something because this cat puts in some serious hours. It's a wretched but miserable life, but the great thing about life is that it's never so bad that it can't get worse: one day an espresso machine from outer space lands in the desert and before long all this horror starts to go down. Somebody throws dead birds at the loser's truck, the wife shoots the family dog for no particular reason, and a bunch of animals get possessed and attack everybody. It's all super weak, though. Finally the mute gets possessed too ("That loony of yours has gone mad!" says one guy), kidnaps the daughter, and takes her to the alien that's behind all this crap. Her parents go after them though, there's a big showdown, and in the end they defeat the alien with love.

Then everyone pukes, even the unicorn.
