Explorers (1985)

"The adventure begins in your own back yard."

Overview

Middle schooler Ben spends his free time watching sci-fi films, playing video games and reading comic books.

Joined by their buddy Darren, the boys take off into outer space and encounter some very odd extraterrestrial life.
