Definitely a piece of harmless fun - so stated by the fact that it is a Hallmark production! An updated version (although at times slightly scary for younger viewers) of every B-movie that MST3K (heaven!) loves to comment on. The storyline concerns an old film that has been banned from exhibition after its preview night due to 'monsters' literally jumping off the screen. Fast-forward 50-years-later and we find the director (George Kennedy) living alone and looking for a nurse to take care of him as he, apart from other ailments, has difficulty in sleeping - kinda surprising as he keeps dozing off! His newly hired nurse (Linda Blair) and her son (Tim McCallum) move in with him, and while helping to clear the basement of old props the son finds the copies of his supposedly unreleased (or 'unrealeased' if you read the website on-screen) of his movie 'Monsters On The Loose'. I don't want to give too much away but if you have younger children or adore Linda Blair you can't go wrong!
