In the classic 1951 sci-fi film The Day the Earth Stood Still, the alien Klaatu arrives on Earth with his robot companion Gort and a message for the world's leaders. His welcome on arrival is less than warm. Anticipating that things could go very wrong, Klaatu teaches a human woman the phrase "Klaatu barada nikto," and tells her to use it should anything happen to him. It's later used to shut down Gort's rampage. Since then, Klaatu Barada Nikto has become a common sci-fi catchphrase. It's been referenced in all manner of media, even outside sci-fi — fantasy, comic books, music, whatever. Although there's no known translation for the phrase, it's safe to assume that "Klaatu" refers to the film's protagonist. Despite its status as a classic sci-fi reference, and despite Keanu Reeves' insistence on its presence, when it came time for The Remake, the phrase was deliberately rendered almost unintelligible. |

Channel Awesome: Its use in The Evil Dead (probably) is referenced in Suburban Knights. However, The Nostalgia Critic pronounces it "Klaatu... Barada... Necktie..." To Boldly Flee, the sequel to the above, has the Critic get saved in the middle of a battle by The Angry Video Game Nerd dressed as Gort. He mumbles "Klaatu, Barada, whatever" and goes on with his mission. |

In its June 7, 1994 edition, the tabloid Weekly World News "reported" that 12 US Senators were aliens from other planets. Several of the senators or their spokespeople played along, "confirming" the story. The Associated Press soon ran a follow-up piece in which a spokesperson for Senator Alan Simpson said, "We've got only one thing to say: Klaatu barada nikto." | |

In one mission in the RTS Myth II: Soulblighter, a barbarian is sent to say the magic phrase that will awaken Myrdred the Deceiver. Subverted when, even though the barbarian says something like "Clambake Baraka Nictuu", it works anyway... Myrdred wakes up from his thousand-year-sleep, says "close enough", and teleports himself and your troops out of the area. | |

Whether a coincidence or not, the phrase shows up in the second episode of the Read or Die OVA when Genjo begins to chant. It's rendered more like 'klatu barata niktu' and this only appears in the dub, but it can still be heard fairly clearly. | |

In the very first Rocky and Bullwinkle episode as our heroes crash land on earth from the moon (long story), the phrase isn't actually used as their arrival was mistaken as an alien invasion, but when Rocky tells Bullwinkle that the government welcoming party thinks they're moon men, Bullwinkle turns to them and says "Take me to your President!" | |

In the "Ebil Dread" adventure from the AdventureQuest Worlds 2nd Birthday Event, the horde of pink undead summoned up by Beleen can only be destroyed by assembling the George Lowe-onomicon and speaking the magic words. As the adventure in question is a Shout-Out to the Evil Dead series and Army of Darkness in particular (including Artix replacing his possessed pink hand with a chainsaw), one can pretty much guess what those magic words are. And much like Ash, Artix...doesn't quite get that last word right. Poor guy. | |
