For almost a hundred years, The Locusts have treated their followers to one night - three hours - where they can do anything they want to a selected home and any of the people they find inside. The Locusts have selected the home of Daniel (Matt O'Neill, Candy Corn) and Jessica (Sunny Doench, Coffin). Complicating matters is that there may be a Locust who isn't on the same side as everyone else, plus Jessica's sister Liz (Andrea Sweeney Blanco) is hiding under the bed trying to escape.
Like a combination of The Strangers and The Purge, the film begins with John Doe (Bruce Davison, who has nearly 300 credits, but may be best known for being in X-Men as Senator Kelly; you may also recognize him from The Lords of Salem or The Crucible) invites the cult's member to initiate the Night of the Locusts.
A family that barely gets along being surrounded by four cult members who can get away with anything that happens. Great set-up, right? Yes, it is. The execution - CGI stabbings instead of practical effects and costumes that look like the Wish version of Ghost from Call of Duty - take away the good will that the opening created.
Fans of TV's Dynasty and The Colbys will, at least, be happy to see John James (Jeff Colby!) show up. His next movie is My Son Hunter, playing President Biden. It's directed by Robert Davi and stars Gino Carano so...
Director, writer, producer, editor and one of the actors - he's Truman - Kipp Tribble did more than just two or three things on this movie. I wish that he could have followed up on pieces he set in motion. That said, he's figured out how to pull this movie together with a small crew and a low budget.
