It was like 3am and I was around 9 years old. I don’t remember what channel, but I remember this movie changed my thought process for 2 months, because it freaked me out so much.

It was live action. It had these kids who’s mom was stolen by aliens (I think?) that looked human, but not at the same time. The only scene I remember from this movie was where the ruler of the aliens gave the mom some sort of serum to make her fall in love with the first thing she looks at. When he gives it to her, she acts like she fell in love with him and nearly makes out with him, but then kicks him and runs.

Then somehow she was given the serum again and she happened to be looking at the dad, and she was in love with him.

Something else I remember about that scene was the color purple, just the alien ship that they were in, was purple. Why? I don’t know.

It looked like it would of been made by the same people who made Spy Kids to be honest.
