Teenage uberdork Mike Pillsbury manages to MacGyver his satellite dish into an interstellar communications relay so he can ask aliens to rescue him from Earth in this demented scene from 1999 TV movie Can Of Worms. Everything about this scene is awesome: the weird science, the breathless speechifying, and the burning desire to be free of other humans (we know the feeling.) Young adult science fiction is booming, and Bill Murray’s new City of Ember movie may translate that success to the big screen. But Ember can’t possibly be as crazy or weird as Worms.
