About The Movie
When newly-divorced Lucy moves her family to her father's house in Santa Clara, California -- "the murder capital of the world" -- her teenage son, Michael (Jason Patric), quickly falls in with the town's bad kids: a bike-riding, Jim Morrison-worshipping gang of blood-sucking vampires led by David (Kiefer Sutherland). Her younger son Sam (Corey Haim) and his buddies, the Frog brothers, are the only ones who recognize the signs of vampirism in Michael, and they plot to battle the legions of the night before they take over the entire town.
