Synopsis:



''' It's just another typical day in the small Canadian town of Edwoodville in 1952. That is until an alien space ship releases a mysterious space gas from Uranus  into the water supply, thereby mutating normal belly button lint into hideous space creatures intent on enslaving the town's citizens. '''



''' Only Rocco Bullwinkle, his girlfriend Alice Toppenbottom, out-of-work lumberjack Buddy Palchum,  scientist Carl Whistleberry,  waitress Wanda McGuffin, and Billy the Orphan Boy can save humanity from the evil clutches of Commander Galaxass of Uranus. '''



 But when the group discovers that a secret alien space spy   

                                                     from Uranus may be among their own group, no one knows 

'''                                                     who to trust. Only one thing is for certain... '''

About the Film: 



<p style="margin:0.0px0.0px13.0px0.0px;font:16.0pxArial"> It Came from Uranus is an all-puppet  feature-length film in the Ed Wood-era B-movie style. The script  is riddled with deliberately clunky dialogue, 1950s slang, and a total of 41 carefully place pop culture references - everything from blatant references to Ed Wood and Justin Beiber to subtle references to Jaws and 1970s/1980s sitcom Diff'rent Strokes. It was produced by Poor Fishy Films, an independent film company co-founded by Ken Turner and Paul J. Boresky. Filming took place largely in Ken's basement, except for the Greasy Fred's French Bistro and Bait Shoppe  scenes (shot at the historic Staircase Theatre in Hamilton, Ontario), and the Institute of Science, Technology and Things That Go Boink scene (shot in Ken's Mom's basement).

<p style="margin:0.0px0.0px13.0px0.0px;font:16.0pxArial"> There are several references to Poor Fishy Film s' other films:  the fish bowl from Fishy; a box of Tobacc-Os cereal from Tobacc-Os; Mr. Dingles' hat from Circus Temps; the sock from Unexplained Mysteriousnesses; the book from The Mickey Montgomery Show; George R. Zombieman from Zombie Puppets Anonymous; and the beer bottle from The Yard Sale.

There are a total of 11 on-screen characters in the film, but only six human cast members brought the characters to life:
