Hiya,
I've been trying 2 find the name of a sci-fi movie from the late 70's/early 80's, about thousands of little silver balls from space, I was very young when I saw it. All I remember about it is; there is a scene that, people are running through a supermarket and the balls are eating through all the cans of food and cereal boxes and things. And there's the tune that goes with it 2, its very catchy but I can't find the name 2 it either aghh. Its such an old movie and its probably a crap one 2 but its driving me crazy! Please could someone help me?? :o:confused::mad:

Batteries Not Included?

I immediately thought Jessica Tandy, so I googled her name and "little robots movie" to find it

I hope that's it!

Yo Hauser5!

That's not it, the film I'm thinking of was way before that... It was an English film I think...

Thanks though ;)

Glitterball (1977) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0192075/), I think.
