John Hough directs Bette Davis, Christopher Lee and Kim Richards in this Disney sequel where those alien good kids visit L.A. – Tia joins a gangs of cute rough boys and Tony gets kidnapped by a mad scientist and his benefactor.

Full of cheesy SFX and broad, gentle humour. The kinda movie that was in heavy rotation at holiday camps and kids clubs on rainy days when I was a lad. Finds time for a comedy goat and a timely nuclear meltdown finale. Held up better than I expected.
