In the eighties I seen a film similar to this. In it the people get took over by aliens. When they are took over their eyes are green. I remember a scene where a father gets up in the middle of the night to get some milk. he is drinking the milk straight from the fridge. he drops the milk and is standing in the middle of the kitchen as if possessed. i think his son gets up and tries to talk to him. I think the father works at some sort of industrial complex. The main scene that I remember best is at the end, I think the aliens are beaten. But then it ends at a school, a young girl walks up to her teacher and says that "she isn't going to do any home work again", the quotes is something like that. then her eyes glow green. the teacher has a smile on her face and is being manipulated, the teacher then says something like no problem. If anyone has any idea please let me know as I have wanted to see this film for a long time.

I loved me some Wojo as a young gal, and I was shocked to see him without his follicular "enhancement" in a movie at some point in the '80s. I have been a firm believer in keeping it natural ever sinceI don't care for the surprises, and I like to think I would have found him swoon-worthy anyway. Harumph. Keep it real, folks! Thonx

Well, almost three years later, but for what it's worth
The film you seek is, without a doubt, "The Aliens Are Coming" (1980) a made-for-TV movie. Max Gail (Wojciehowicz from the show "Barney Miller") plays the father who works at Hoover Dam and is controlled by the aliens.
I just bought an old Goodtimes vhs of this and watched it not too long ago.

You may be thinking of Strange Invaders - that's what I was looking for and came here but it just wasn't quite right. Don't remember details though - sorry

It's not Tommyknockers.

Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

I understand how that is dan223-1 . There have been a few movies over the years I'm still looking for but still not have been able to find . Do you remember any of the actors names that were in it ? Here also is a list from Wikipedia of Science Fiction movies of the 1980's - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_science_fiction_films:_1980s - . I hope this will help out a bit in your search . Perhaps you will spot a title or actor that might look familiar to you from the movie profiles . Sorry I couldn't be more of help on this . It seems like an awesome movie from what you described .
