Review of Sometimes They Come Back (1991) by Al S — 04 Sep 2009
I love this film. From what I understand this is not faithful to the novel, the sequel with Alexis Arquette, Hilary Swank and Michael Gross was more faithful. This is more of a prequel to that story(as this character is mentioned in the next film).
The characters in this film are just fantastic, the story moves at a brisk pace and doesn't linger on too much. Tim Matheson does an awesome job as the English teacher who returns home after being away for years and having to relieve the experience of watching his brother and his killers die.
The suspense isn't put out in a ridiculous way and the gore is on a good level. This film is definitely worth a watch. The sequel is also pretty good, but stay away from Sometimes They Come Back...For More.
