Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode where these people wake up in a deserted town. They eventually realize that they were captured by giant extraterrestrial who brought them home as playthings for a child.

@Patty: Or the one where the old pioneer woman is trying to fight off a small alien only to discover that the 'alien' was from Earth. That was an excellent show!!!

Anyhow, back on subject:
