Synopsis
Miramax Films darlings
Robert Rodriguez
and screenwriter
Kevin Williamson
teamed up for a high-school alien-horror film that they described as
The Breakfast Club
meets
Invasion of the Body Snatchers
. Dilapidated Herrington High is the location for a story about a school faculty taken over by outer-space creatures, forcing the students to take charge and kick some alien butt. School faculty members (

Bebe Neuwirth
,
Salma Hayek
, and
Jon Stewart
) are infested with rapidly reproducing space worms that take over their minds and bodies. But never fear, because at this school, between hazing the student body and having sex in the locker room, a Scooby-Doo-ish group of high school students is ready to fight back. The up-and-coming acting talent includes R&B singer

,
Elijah Wood
,
Clea Duvall

Josh Hartnett
