Directed by Steven Kostanski, this horror-comedy is about child siblings Mimi (Nita-Josee Hanna) and Luke (Owen Myre) who accidentally unearthed an alien overlord they nicknamed Psycho Goreman (Matthew Ninaber). As the creature is released from being entombed in their backyard, it tries to unleash its evil ways, to no avail. Mimi discovers that an ancient amulet she found near the creature has the power to make it obey the holder’s command. Thus, she and Luke end up ordering the overlord around—until its presence alerts intergalactic assassins who fly to their small suburb to wreak havoc.
