Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
The movie begins with how Mr. Strieber (Walken) and his wife (Crouse), with their two children, decides to take a vacation at their summer house. As they arrive, strange things starts to happen. Eventually, Whitley discovers that the aliens (who acts almost bizzare) mean no harm, and that they are "one".
Spoilers end here.
