According to what happens in the movie after she says "Klaatu barada nikto", it must mean "close your visor, pick up Patricia Neal and take her into the space ship, locate Klaatu's body with some sort of tracking device, leave the ship, locking Patricia inside, go to the jail, burn a hole in the wall, retrieve Klaatu's body and bring it back to the ship, put him in the bring-ya-back-to-life machine, bring him back to life and then step aside."
It's obviously a very compact language.

I loved that movie and saw at on TV (Friday or Saturday Night At The Movies) over and over again. I see there's a remake afoot http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0970416/>
...ya know what really bugs me? When somebody takes it upon him/herself to write a "sequel" to a novel originally written by another author. Some babe wrote a "sequel" to Gone with the Wind quite a few years ago (I think Scarlett moves to Ireland...yeah, right, as if she would do that!). No way I'd read that. The only way I'd read a sequel to GWTW if is Margaret Mitchell came back to life and wrote one.
