Movie about aliens disguised as humans that turn out to be allergic to latex
I saw this movie (or possibly mini-series) on TV (grandma had cable) in the mid to late eighties. I was young, so I don't remember much. Aliens were hiding as humans so it took a while to figure out what was going on. There was a scene with a baby, sick in an incubator, but then his skin split open and it was a green alien baby. I also remember a scene where there was a big balloon release because the aliens were allergic to latex, but then it seemed like the aliens went from being bad guys to good guys.

@Danny3414 : I got that vibe too (a really muddled memory of it there if it is that though) : accept they were never "hiding as humans" in V : I don't remember anything about a latex allergy either?

I don't remember a latex allergy either. IIRC the Resistance tried to release a red dust bacteria but it didn't work in sunny climes (maybe!)

This is just plain funny, given the material of the usual alien costume/prosthetics in these shows and films.

@FuzzyBoots : I know, I did sort of wonder if that might be part of the years later muddle in memory from watching V (for example) as a child & remembering their human disguises being torn & such.
