I'd forgotten that one, but maybe it was lurking in the back of my mind. Perhaps I've got a little controller inside me...

There's also The Corbomite Maneuver, an episode of Star Trek: Original Series. The Enterprise is menaced by a giant head which turns out to mask the ship of a child-sized alien. (The alien was played by Clint Howard, younger brother of Ron Howard.)
