When the film begins they've just fled California and relocated in Indiana. The son enters high school and sets his sights on the Madchen Amick from "Twin Peaks". Wise choice, but instead of just killing her when he's over at her crib, he attacks her while out on a date! Genius. The attack goes off like a dry wet fart and she she pokes him in the eye and alerts the cops. Now the police are hot on their tails. Meow!
Lame action, lightweight violence, zero gore, zero nudity. I wanted to like this film (and it was an okay time-waster), but there's just not a lot going on. Also, the mother/son duo are unlikable with their cat murdering, plus you never get a clear view of what powers they have or what they're capable of or even what their goal even is! I guess it's just to live another day so they can bang more. If it wasn't for Madchen Amick, the various genre cameos and multiple Stephen King references I probably would have fallen asleep. Although, Ferris Bueller's parents showing up kinda blew my mind.
