The phrase is from a classic black-and-white sci-fi movie, "The Day The Earth Stood Still". It was the command Klaatu the alien gave to the female lead to speak to the robot, Gort, to get him to quit mowing everything down and come to his master's rescue.

It was also used more recently in the movie "Army of Darkness" by the Bruce Campbell character as the words to retrieve the magic book he was after. And it's used in parodies all over.
