Critters

An amusing horror comedy directed by Stephen Herek (??Bill & Teds Excellent Adventure, ??Mr. Holland's Opus?) is the story of a family menaced by eight basketball sized creatures from outer space that arrive at their Kansas farm in search of food. Helen Brown (Dee Wallace Stone ??E.T.?, The Howling) and Brad (Scott Grimes ??Whos Your Monkey?,? TV's ER), owners of the farm find themselves held hostage as the creatures roll, jump and bounce around during the night. They are pursued by a pair of inept, intergalactic bounty hunters, Charlie (Don Keith Opper ??Ghost In the Machine, ??Android?) and Johnny (Terrence Man TVs ??All My Children,? ??Mrs. Santa Clausâ?) who can shape-shift at will and are packing weapons capable of taking care of any creature they encounter.
