Cocoon (1985)
KomödieScience FictionMysteryDrama
Aliens besuchten unseren Planeten und sie sind uns nicht feindlich gesinnt. Stattdessen warten sie in robusten Kokons auf dem Meeresboden, bis sie heimgeholt werden. Als sich nun eine neue Gruppe an die Rückholaktion macht, werden die Kokons im Swimming Pool eines stillgelegten Hauses zwischengelagert. Genau dieses Schwimmbecken nützen aber heimlich die Senioren Art, Ben und Joe, die unwillig über ihr Alter, doch relativ glücklich mit ihren Frauen in einem Heim leben. Das Bad in dem Pool jedoch hat ungeahnte Wirkungen: plötzlich fühlen sich alle drei verjüngt, kräftiger und frischer. Verständlicherweise lassen sie auch ihre Frauen an dem Effekt teilhaben. Doch dadurch werden bald noch andere darauf aufmerksam, was für die Aliens eine Gefahr bedeutet...
