After a rogue comet which hides the presence of a UFO passes by, trucks and other machines come alive and begin killing people. The story takes place at the Dixie Boy truck stop where honeymooners, Connie (Yeardley Smith) and Curt (John Short) and several other travelers have gone to try to escape the carnage.

But do we need to be in steel rooms with no ventilation when it comes by, or at least not look at it so we won't go blind?

Well, I call them cometships and won't spend the time to explain that theory at the present time. But big rocks can make decent deep spaceships.
I do want to make a statement about this more or less official "50,000-year orbit" it supposedly has. Think in terms of such a motion being no-way roundish as we tend to think of "orbits." Think of one of those little, round toothpicks. Picture one of the pointed ends of the toothpick. That is one end of the passage, the perihelion, where the sun is at. Next, think about a motion that is 50,000 years long, so long that the incoming and outgoing sides of that "orbit" are so straight that any observation along their length, both the coming and going would have to concede that they were as straight as railroad tracks and no determination can be made about how long in time and distance they can be.
Determinations about the orbit can only be made as the comet come into our system, as the comet sets up its approach and departure from the sun. That is all scientists have to judge upon. Those determinations mean little about the distance/time of the motion. The perihelion is a chosen course as the comet pilot, knowing his job, sets about inserting the comet deep into the sun's gravity well with the desire to have the body exit the sun's forces on a heading that takes it exactly back the way it came in.
As natural objects, there is no way that long-period comets would ever have such slim and exceedingly precise motions. Those ain't orbits. It is all a lie to hide the truth from you. (Short-period comets are another matter entirely.)

The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many died from the water, because it was made bitter.
