Teenagers from Outer Space (a.k.a. The Gargon Terror, The Boy from Outer Space, and The Ray-Gun Terror) is a 1959 independent black-and-white science fiction film released by Warner Bros. The film was produced, written and directed by Tom Graeff and stars David Love, Dawn Bender (in the girl part), Bryan Grant, Harvey B. Dunn, Tom Graeff and King Moody.

A young alien named Derek, who has a strangely Earth-like name, abandons the rest of his crew and takes off in a flying saucer to search for new life on Earth, because, alien or not, he’s a teenager and teenagers do dumb things. One of his teen crewmates is sent to find him because the aliens intend to wipe out the humans and turn Earth into a farm for giant lobsters, called Gargons, which they love to eat. The teen aliens are incredibly mean and delight in doing mean things, like vaporizing a dog with their disintegrating guns. Meanwhile Derek meets a luscious young Earth-Vixen named Betty and everything gets messed up, because that’s what girls do best.
