- Plot: Herrington High, Ohio, a small-town highschool. All of a
sudden, the teachers start changing attitude. When Casey and Delilah have to
hide in a closet in the teacher's lounge, they witness the strangulation of
Nurse Harper by two of them. Shocked, they manage to flee. Only moments later,
the nurse seems to be very alive, but also somehow changed, like all the
teachers and most of the students. Only Casey, Delilah and four others seem to
be suspicious. Proof of an alien infection is finally brought by the chemistry
teacher, who also points out a way to kill the infected humans. The plan now
is to get the queen, before the aliens can spread out over the whole country.

Quotes
Coach Willis:
You're not much into sports.
Casey: I don't think
that a person should run unless he's being chased.
Coach Willis: "Being
chased." I like that.
Casey: Everyone's been
acting really weird, especially the faculty.
Stokely: Tell me about
it, it's like they've all turned into fucking pod people or something.
Casey: Into what people?
Stokely: Invasion of
the Body Snatchers. Small town gets taken over by aliens. ...That was a joke.
Casey: You're not
buying this, are you?
Stokely: No, I'm not...
but it's kinda cool.
Casey: God, you can be
such a...
Delilah: What?
Casey: Pretty cool
human being when you're not being a first class grade A bitch.
Delilah: Are you
hitting on me Casey?
Casey: No. No, I just
think that you can be cool. Sometimes. This not being one of them.
Zeke: What are we going
to do?
Stan: I could call my
dad, he'd know what to do.
Casey: If he's really
your dad.
Stokely: Body snatchers
is a story somebody made up, dingus. It's located in the fiction section of the
library.
Casey: Yeah, so is
Schindler's List.
Stokely: So they've
just been setting us up over the years with their E.T.'s and their Men In Black
movies, just so no one would believe it if it ever happened.
Casey: I think so.
Casey: It must really
blow being you.
Stan: You have no idea.
Zeke: Stan, take it.
Stan: No way, you're
takin' it!
Casey: [Laughing
and obviously high] You're takin' it!
[Stan picks up gun and points it at Casey]
Stan: What the hell is
wrong with him?
Zeke: He's tweaking you
asshole! Let him fucking tweak!
Casey: Tweak! Tweak!
Casey: If you were
going to take over the world, would you blow up the White House 'Independence
Day' style, or sneak in through the back door?
Zeke: Here take this.
Casey: Now Marybeth.
Zeke: Sniff it.
Casey: You're out of
your fucking mind!
Zeke: I'm about to take
my chances. I leave for five minutes, and when I come back everyone's a fucking
alien. Now, If I have to Men In Black your ass, you're gonna fucking take it!
[Casey sniffs it hasefuly]
Casey: Happy now?
Casey: I say we go for
the coach. He turned Stan. He's the one. Or do you want to wait for them to come
to us?
Marybeth: Either way
we're completely unarmed.
Zeke: Maybe not. I
might have some more skat. In my trunk.
Casey: In your trunk?
In your car? Amongst the aliens? Oh, that's convenient.
Zeke: (Holds up his car
keys) You got a better idea?
Delilah: Hello Casey.
Where ya gonna go, huh? The class wuss... eternal little loser who comes to
school everyday knowing this is it. You've been labeled 'pathetic' since first
grade and you're afraid it's going to bleed over for the rest of your life. Well
we can stop it Casey. We can help you belong. Isn't that what you really want?
Casey: Please don't do
this Delilah.
Delilah: I haven't been
this happy since... since... before my dad died. I know you want me Casey. Come
on. Let's do it together.
Delilah: Your fanclub
is here.
Casey: Network or
local?
Delilah: Both.
Gabe: Hey yo, pisswad,
you're in my way.
Casey: I'm sorry. I was
breathing here.
Gabe: Yeah, that's the
problem, you're occupying my air, anal probe.
Trivia
- When Casey nurses his wounds in the bathroom at the beginning of the
movie, graffiti above his head reads, "Tito and Tarantula." This is the band
of Tito Larriva, who has
composed music and acted in director 'Rodriguez, Robert' 's other movies,
Desperado (1995) and
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996).
- In exchange for product placement in this film for clothier Tommy
Hilfiger's fashion line, the teens from the movie's cast appeared together
in a TV commercial & print ad campaign for Tommy Jeans throughout 1998.
Goofs
- Continuity: The strap on Casey's bag as he's walking up to the
school in between the shots of Coach Willis talking to his dad and him
looking back at them.
- Factual errors: When Casey's dad took away his internet
privileges, he never took away any type of modem, it was his ZIP drive.
- Continuity: After being trapped in the bleachers, the Queen spits
several slugs at Casey in a final death throw. The one on his right cheek
enters his face twice in subsequent shots.
