"The day the earth stood still".

That's a great film and the line Klaatu barada nikto is used all over the 
place. The phrase is used to calm the robot down as the alien man is dead 
or in hospital. I remember the line is used (he gets it wrong) in the 
medieval dead (Evil Dead 3) so that Ash can take the book of the dead. 
Heard it the other day in another programme or film

good 'ole wiki...

This Island Earth
Another great film. Isn't that the one where all the alien scientists have 
errr? big slap heads and white/gray hair and are possibly very tanned?

Sorry this has all probably been answered I'm on digest.
