The intergalactic adventure Aliens Ate My Homework arrived on DVD, Digital, and On Demand March 6th, 2018! I would have shared this sooner, but I didn’t have power on March 6th, lol! The film adaption of the first book from the Rod Allbright and the Galactic Patrol series by Bruce Coville follows a pair of middle schoolers racing to save the world from destruction after extraterrestrials invade Earth. The movie is a fabulous mix of entertainment and adventure, and empowers kids with humor, heart, and a whole lot of imagination. It stars the incredibly talented sci-fi icon, William Shatner. It’s the first movie in a series of fun action-comedies that Universal 1440 Entertainment will be releasing.
