I still want an explanation as to how the aliens in that movie managed to miss that 70% of the planet is covered by a deadly poison, and that it literally falls from the sky in most places.


There's the theory that the aliens are really demons and it's not water they're vulnerable to, but holy water.


A kid is filling cups with tap water to drink.

At what point is a priest blessing them all?


The main character is a former priest. I don't remember any explicit blessings, but maybe being in a (ex-)priests house is enough. Or they were blessed when the protagonist found his faith again.

Or it was the daughter, who was constantly referred to as "angel".


My in-laws had their house blessed by their priest shortly after moving in. They do the same with their cars. Perhaps a house, properly blessed, provides the necessary protection?


Because it was _holy_ water that damaged them because they are demons not aliens in the movie. There is actually no scene in that movie of a spaceship or anything that indicates it's aliens


There's no scene of a priest blessing cups of a kid's drinking water, either.


I'm pretty sure there was lights above in the sky at some point. And there is also the bird that hit an (allegedly) invisible alien ship.
