This movie is from the makers of Jumanji.
Two kids, home alone, find an old game, under the stairs. They start to play it, one draws a card with the warning " meteor shower", and of course, meteors start coming through the ceiling.
The real action starts when their house is ripped from its foundations, and is launched into outer space.
I saw the shorts for it at the cinema last week, and I'm so glad I have kids so I can go and see it as well.

Houghy,
I drive to the big smoke ( Caboolture ) to see new releases.
The Lions club screens movies at the Toogoolawah Theatre once a month. It reminds me of when I was a kid going to the old Beach Theatre at Sandgate. Canvas seats, jaffas rolled down the aisles, kids running amuck during intermission etc.
You gotta love living in the country.
