I love the total preposterousness of the premise. The flagrant absurdity of all the adults being slaughtered in a small town without anyone in the world outside of said town ever noticing gives this picture a uniquely ridiculous vintage 1980's cheeseball period charm.
You've seen Guy Standeven in something because the man was in everything.

I was recently in a town that had a ten mile radius and everything was in the middle of town with a population of 107
faith begins at the end of your comfort zone.

Every summer we drive 3 hours to the ocean down in the south. For two of those hours there's no cell service and one gas station. We pass through a few sad towns and like to joke that if our car broke down it could be the beginning of a horror movie.
If you've ever seen Jeepers CreepersI sing that song when we pass an old church near fields LOL

You're exaggerating. A very large portion of the US population lives in a relatively small proportion of the country. Huge parts of the country are still quite rural and remote. I live in one of them. Not to the extent of the town in this movie, but definitely off the beaten path.
Even smaller and more densely-populated countries, like Japan for example, still have their empty areas. Young people migrate out of small-town rural areas to cities in search of work, and little towns are dying out. I was just reading an article recently about a little town in Japan where this old woman makes these scarecrows and puts them around in public places to remind herself of when people used to live around there. It was kinda sad really. If that can happen in Japan, it can certainly happen in the US which is so many times larger.
There are a lot of people in the world, but in large part they're concentrated in particular areas.

The world is NOT overpopulated, not by any stretch of the imagination. Stop buying into propaganda.

As someone who lives in Nevada, I can tell you there are tiny town, rural towns all over the place. Hell, just outside of Vegas is Goodsprings, has like 2 businesses, one school.. And that's about it. Also, take a drive through Oklahoma. You'll see things a LOT differently.

Have you been to Detroit lately? It's pretty isolated and is a live action horror movie, every day.

Check out Nevada. Plenty of isolated towns that are drying up. Carlin will be a ghost town in 10-20 years.

Now where did I set my drink?

Yeah, not quite. There's still 700k in the city and a few million in the immediate surrounding cities.

Drive across the country and see if your opinion stays the same.

So everyone who prefers quiet and isolation is a bomber?
Not at all. I'm just disproving your "A little isolation and solitude never hurt anybody."
You strike me as one of those city people who thinks everyone in the country is either an ignorant hillbilly or serial killer like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
Neither.
They can coexist.
That's my point.
Can't stop the signal.

So everyone who prefers quiet and isolation is a bomber? You strike me as one of those city people who thinks everyone in the country is either an ignorant hillbilly or serial killer like The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. There can be both countries AND cities, you know. They can coexist. It doesn't have to be one or the other.

Building some jobs and homes are fine but not every place needs to be a big city.
It does if there are a lot of people moving in.
A little isolation and solitude never hurt anybody.
Didn't the unabomber live in isolation and solitude?
Can't stop the signal.

How dare they destroy wildlife. Building some jobs and homes are fine but not every place needs to be a big city. A little isolation and solitude never hurt anybody.

People try to ruin everywhere with buildings,
Yes. How dare they build places to live and work.
Can't stop the signal.

Hahaha

You might love these small towns if you're an introverted shut-in with no social life.
That is actually a VERY accurate description of me and I'm not joking either. How did you know?

These small, rural towns are in the Midwest like the one in this movie are dying. Google something like "midwest depopulating" or "midwest dying" or something similar and you'll see lots of reports how rural towns in the midwest are dying. Why are they dying? The jobs are not there. You might love these small towns if you're an introverted shut-in with no social life. But if you're a person who wants a decent job, you'll end up feeling miserable there.

I don't know, I've been in some pretty small towns where all you can see for miles are fields of wheat/corn. It's a shame there aren't more places like that, though. People try to ruin everywhere with buildings, roads, cars, etc. I love small, rural towns and hate to see them be ruined by people.
