Awful acting...
2 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
No need for me to write a plot synopsis here since other commenters have already done it, so I'll focus my rant upon the appalling acting and a few of the glaring plot holes--of which there were too many to count.

Most annoying in my opinion was David, the teenage boy played by Eric Foster who must have been dragged out his high school drama class a day prior to being cast in this dismal film.

Throughout most of the film, the kid remained wide-eyed and strangely mute but with his mouth agape throughout (just like you see in his IMDb photo). I kept hoping that a fly would zip inside to make him gag.

Then, there was David's pretty sister Lynn (Kim Valentine) who, incredibly, didn't seem to mind the attention of the local, conceited slob Kenny (Michael Robinson) whom wiser girls would have avoided like the plague and whose only "claim to fame" could only have been his pristine, 2-door 1959 Chevy.

As for grandma, grandpa, those yakking visitors stuffing their faces, the dumb-ass sheriff, etc., made me groan, "No...no...NOT THESE stereotypes, please!".

Strange, too, that the wacko, presumably mentally-challenged mother of the teenagers always seemed energetic and savvy enough to be able to chase and catch up to the fleeing kids no matter how fast they ran, no matter where they tried to hide, etc., plus the fact that David and Lynn couldn't seem to realize the folly of running directly in front of the pickup truck wacko mother evidently had no trouble handling Why didn't the kids simply jump behind the adjacent trees and dash away in the opposite direction?

But then, what can we expect from turkeys like this?
