Talk:Purple People Eater

I Wikipedia'd it and it was the title of a pop song in 1958.--Owen1983 (talk) 17:57, January 11, 2013 (UTC)

 * It is, indeed. I knew about the song since childhood though I didn't know we had an article on it. It's sort of a strange case—it's lyrics could indicate that it is an extraterrestrial or simply that it is aerial in nature. The wikipedia article you mentioned also makes mention of its usage in the The A-Files: Alien Songs album, which lends (very slight) evidence that it may be intended to be an alien. I was looking up the premise of the movie to see if it was officially an alien in that or not, but then Wikipedia went down, so that will have to wait, I guess. If it is an alien in either the lyrics or the movie, it'd be allowed to stay (since we're about all aliens). Either way, the article could use with a revision. It could also probably use an article on NAC (I never thought of it being an alien, myself, just a monster, though my opinion wouldn't be what would matter here, just the facts or not).


 * In the movie, it is confirmed to be an extraterrestrial. The song writer also starred in the movie so my guess is the song version is officially about an extraterrestrial, as well. — Somarinoa (talk) 02:54, January 13, 2013 (UTC)
