Anthropologist Michael Moriarty returns to his hometown with his obnoxious teenage son. They live in a dilapidated house outside of town and try to bond while repairing it. They clash with the locals, and soon discover its inhabitants are really vampires. They come out only at night, naturally, when the kids attend school and are set up for marriages at a very young age. His son becomes entranced by their society and Moriarty is unable to convince him otherwise. Samuel Fuller arrives just in time as a Nazi hunter turned vampire killer to save them both. Ludicrous, mean-spirited follow up to the much superior first film, with nobody to root for. Fuller is fatally miscast.
