The Visitor from Planet Omicron is a light-hearted science fiction movie from 2013 that follows the story of an extraterrestrial visitor who accidentally lands on earth in the backyard of a Hollywood producer, Sandra. Sandra and her friend, Jerry, who is a wannabe actor, are both shocked at the arrival of the little alien, but soon they realize that he is harmless and even friendly. The alien, who introduces himself as Yod, has come to earth to study human behavior and learn about human emotions.

Sandra and Jerry decide to help Yod in his mission, and they take him to various places in Los Angeles, including Beverly Hills, where he observes the lifestyles of the rich and famous. Yod is fascinated by the peculiarities of human behavior and often makes observations that are both humorous and insightful. For instance, he is amazed by the amount of time humans spend on trivial things like hairdressing and makeup. He is also puzzled by the differences in social status and asks questions like "why do humans care about the size of their houses when they spend most of their time inside?"

As Yod spends more time on earth, he becomes attached to Sandra and Jerry, whom he regards as his friends. However, Yod's behavior starts to attract unwanted attention, and soon the CIA and other government agencies start to investigate his presence on earth. Yod, who only wants to complete his mission and return home, finds himself in a difficult situation. He must find a way to evade the government's watchful eye while completing his mission on time.

One of the highlights of the movie is the character of Yod himself, who is both endearing and comical. Yod is a small, green creature with a big head and large eyes. He bears a resemblance to classic sci-fi characters like E.T from the movie of the same name. However, unlike many other sci-fi portrayals of aliens, Yod is not threatening or dangerous. He is merely curious about human behavior and wants to learn. His childlike innocence and the sense of wonder he brings to the story make him a lovable character that viewers will root for.

The Visitor from Planet Omicron is also notable for its depictions of Los Angeles. The movie features many iconic places in the city, such as the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the Beverly Hills sign, and the Griffith Observatory. The cinematography captures the essence of these locations, and viewers will undoubtedly enjoy the views of these iconic places.

The movie also has a star-studded cast, including Inge Jaklyn, Sally Kirkland, and Tom Tangen in lead roles. The actors deliver solid performances, making the characters both believable and relatable. Inge Jaklyn is particularly impressive as Sandra, the Hollywood producer who befriends Yod.
