Young and likeable Jenny is looking after a farmhouse whilst the family go away on vacation, their son David has the hots for her and hangs around. She is not the slightest bit interested and who can blame her, when it comes to being a nerd he is off the scale! I breathed a big sigh of relief when eventually he does go to join his folks, only for him to soon reappear as he won't take no for an answer off poor Jenny. Meanwhile two psycho brothers invade the farm. They have already skinned a woman alive and the drunken Sheriff (David Carradine) is on (and off) the case. This film can't decide if it wants to be a home invasion shocker, a slasher movie or a cop thriller. It's a bit of each all rolled up. There are a few very gory moments but the body count is too low to really qualify as a slasher. "We got a real loony on our hands" says one cop, without giving anything away there is more than one loon and the "twist" is very difficult to swallow. Quite frankly it's rather ridiculous. The two nasty brothers are well played and Carradine is very watchable as the drunken cop (sadly he had a drink problem in real life and perhaps to some extent he was playing himself). Jenny is a nice girl but she is far too calm when taken hostage, as for David the Nerd I rapidly began to hate this incredibly annoying character. On the soundtrack we are treated to some Beethoven and Bach, the contemporary music is too overdone though. The movie is very downbeat and I applaud it for that but sadly the plot is just too silly and this (plus David, arghhh!) really lets it down.
