Synopsis

A botched laboratory experiment using a powerful laser tears a slit between worlds, depositing alien visitors on Earth. The first to emerge is Howard, a cigar-puffing drake from a planet of duck-like inhabitants. A handful of resourceful children hide him from avaricious researchers and scramble to send him back home, only to find their mission upended when a far more hostile creature slips through the breach, turning their rescue into a desperate struggle.
