Description
The 1980s have become a decade of incredible technological advancement thanks to a race of occupying alien reptiles, but sixteen-year-old Danny Thomas thinks they're up to something. Mostly your average video game loving, pop-culture obsessed teenager, Danny finds adolescence in 1987 a bit trying. Now there's this whole new alien technology called social media. According to the world's allegedly benevolent alien benefactors, sharing photos and personal updates online is the first step to guiding Earth toward a peaceful utopia. Danny and his friends have begun to suspect the opposite is true. Together, seven teenagers and a defecting alien reptile set out to expose a sinister plot while navigating the treacherous waters of teenage friendship and romance. Punk Rock vs. The Lizard People combines the coming-of-age teen comedy-drama of The Breakfast Club with the frenetic sci-fi grit of District 9. Celebrating and subverting beloved tropes, what begins as a loving, nostalgic romp becomes a powerful meditation on grief and the quest for significance.
