Earth Girls are Easy

Valerie (Geena Davis) is a Valley girl working as a manicurist and set to marry Ted, her doctor boyfriend. She tries to get a makeover with the help of her friend Candy (Julie Brown) but discovers that Ted is cheating on her. Valerie is despondent and lounging by her pool the next day when a spaceship crashes. Inside are three technicolour, furry aliens led by Mac (Jeff Goldblum). His two crewmates, Wiploc (Jim Carrey) and Zeebo (Damon Wayans), saw broadcasts from Earth of gorgeous women and took the ship off course, causing the crash. This is a film made in typical ‘B’ movie style, but with all the hallmarks of those films that are big hits today, such as ‘Road Trip’, ‘American Pie’ and even ‘Men in Black’. Although ‘Earth Girls’ is pretty much a genre all of its own – ‘Alien, Comedy, Musical, Teen’… we’ll just call it a fun film.
