i havent seen the movie in years, but dont people all over the world chase off the aliens with water? i guess there were a lot of redemption-seeking priests out there with holy water just lying around. the whole point of the movie was that everything happens for a reason. the kid has asthma so his lungs are closed and he cant inhale the poison, the daughter is weird about her water so she leaves it all over the house, otherwise they never would have known that water kills the aliens, and there was some other stuff about baseball and the wife dying that i dont remember. i dunno, maybe it was holy water, but i never understood that to be it. edit: googled it, apparently it was holy water. will have to watch this again.
