Coneheads
Dan Aykroyd took his daughter, Danielle Aykroyd, to see the film being made, and she was so fascinated by the Conehead costumes she asked for one of her own. She was cast as Connie at age three so she could get her own cone.,When they show the footage of 3 year old Connie on the beach you can clearly see the line of the conehead cap peeling off.,Beldar Conehead: If, for some reason your life functions ceased, my most precious one, I would collapse, I would draw the shades and I would live in the dark. I would never get out of my slar pad or clean myself. My fluids would coagulate, my cone would shrivel, and I would die, miserable and lonely. The stench would be great.,The "That was then and this is now" line alternates between Beldar and the other Conehead Knarfling the Garthok, depending on the version.,Featured in Siskel & Ebert: Coneheads/Benefit of the Doubt/Poetic Justice/Another Stakeout/Hocus Pocus (1993),Music

Written by Sol Kaplan and Fred Steiner,Coneheads is one of the best conversions of an SNL skit to the big screen. Granted, Dan Aykroyd and Jane Curtin were funny on SNL as Beldar and Prymat, but the movie has given them the chance to show how funny they can be as these two aliens from "France"! All the SNL cameos are great too! If you don't like this film, you should be sent to "Narfal the Garthok!!" :),
