Grace (Naomi Watts) leaves medical school to return to her small country town and help her psychologically ailing mother (Karen Black) take care of her younger siblings. Her mom keeps dreaming of creepy farm kids that attack her, and soon Grace finds herself having similar dreams. Soon, all the kids in town come down with a mysterious fever and the body count begins. I watched this drunk awhile back and thought it was boring. After a re-watch, I find it to be the most polished and watchable of the COTC sequels that I've seen. It is unrelated to the previous ones and a good attempt at making a unique installment in the franchise. Naomi's great and Karen Black is hilariously psycho, as usual. But it gets stupid quickly, with a ridiculous "bad mom" theme. As expected, the child actors are awful.
My Rating: 5/10.
