OK, so there's this movie I can't think of the name, but in it is a little boy, about the age of 10, and he gets taken away by a UFO or something, and in part of it, there's this alien like thing and the alien is like an arm with an eye on the end of it, and it goes up to the little boy and just blinks in his face.. Then later on, the boy gets dropped off in his front lawn or something. Ive been trying to find the name of this movie, and it keeps bugging me. Its not E.T. Im sure the movie come out either mid-late 80's or even early 90's..

Not sure if I have the right movie, but noticed no one has answered you so I thought I would give it a shot. This sounds a lot like Flight of The Navigator. The boy does get dropped off on his lawn at the end of the film and the alien is this robot arm with a kind of eye at the end of it. I remember it was a pretty good flick for it's time. Very original movie. Here are a couple of links for you to look at to see if it might be the movie. If you are unsure, or if it isn't the movie, rent it. Definitely worth watching. :)

Ah.. That's it. My partner and I were stumped all day, trying to figure out what it was. Thanks for that!
