Awww isn't 20th Century Fox's new CG alien adorable? He's like a little gray with kitten eyes and puppy paws. This saccharine sweet movie They Came From Upstairs is jam-packed with tweeny goodness, including High School Musical's Ashley Tisdale. See the trailer, and wish the curious alien luck as he faces off with his look-alike alien brethren, who I assume want to take over the attic or our world — either way is equally cute.

Will They Came From Upstairs herald in a new dawn of cute alien movies? And can it stand up to classic craptastic alien kid buddy movies of the past. Sure he's cute it's not like he's saving kids in wheelcharis a la Mac And Me.

The movie comes out next year.
