An electrical force(possibly alien, although the director, who also wrote it, doesn't specify exactly)terrorizes The Rocklands(Cliff De Young & Roxanne Hart). Bill Rockland's young son David(remember Joey Lawrence)comes to stay in LA for the summer. The entire family begin to notice their appliances and mechanized systems are malfunctioning often effecting even their water. Soon violence will erupt with scary results.
The director Paul Golding does a good job with showing us how the force takes over mechanical devices with starling effects. We see this mechanical fungus-like evolution forming..I've never seen anything quite like it. Golding also enforces our dependency on electrical appliances and machinery as we have moved into a more modern age. It's a set-up "what-if" scenario with the force working almost as a virus moving from house to house effecting those who live within each place one at a time. Obviously, those on the outside look at the victims of the pulses as crazy..that is until it happens to them next.
