One of the concepts for the Remake (Score 1)

This is what was on Hollywood Stock Exchange (probably a little dated) "In the future, an alien race of apes penetrates Earth's orbit and sets upon the surface a virus that kills all human children. A group of scientists is recruited to research the ship and hopefully find a cure for this virus. However, after a thorough examination of the alien space vessel, the scientists are unable to ascertain the kind of virus it is or a cure for it. But they do find out something extremely important and terrifying-the ship and the virus were sent to Earth exterminate humankind." Sounds like its right up Burton's alley.
