Opis: Everyone thinks horror-movie buff Bill Stenson [Robin Dunne] has seen one too many
scifi films when he claims to have seen a UFO land in last night's freak
lightning storm. Still, how do you explain the windowless metal dish
flanked by two gargoyles that appeared just this morning in the empty lot
next to Mr Danvers' house? Why has the government sent in a team of
S.E.T.I. specialists to set up the old observatory? What is causing the
two holes that are appearing on the necks of the Knollwood residents, and
why are they all starting to act weird? [Well, except for Mrs Gibson, who
always was a crotchety old sourpuss.]The next day, as the S.E.T.I. team (Hank, Mike, and Paula set up
their equipment, Hank [James Kee] notices a hot spot on the geothermal scanner, and
they go to investigate. Meanwhile, Bill stops to have another look at the
UFO after delivering Mr Danvers' newspaper. As he reaches out to touch it,
it suddenly begins to glow green, and Bill is knocked to the ground just
as the S.E.T.I. team arrives. As Hank investigates the UFO, Mike [Liviu Lucaci] and Paula [Bianca Brad]
go back to the van for their equipment. No one notices crotchety old Mrs
Gibson until it's too late. When Hank goes to see what is holding up Mike
and Paula, they are gone. When Hank races back to the observatory to check
his geothermal scans, Mr Jonas [Servan Celea] from the Neighborhood Watch pays a visit.
Just as he is about to bite Hank in the neck, Bill and his technogeek
friend, Kevin James [Mak Fyfe], show up. Mr Jonas promises to catch them later and
leaves. Bill notices the hot spot on Hank's geothermal screen and
recognizes it as the old mine shaft. Legend has it that, back in the
1800s, coal miners found the largest diamond in the world. They dubbed it
the "Light of the Moon" but, when they were transporting it to New York,
it disappeared.Tomorrow is the big Knollwood/Huntsville soccer game. When Bill
learns that the players and cheerleaders, including his sister Katie, are
having a pregame party tonight near the old mine, he decides that he has
to keep the kids from going into it. As he and Kevin guard the entrance,
they are surprised to see Hank show up. Kevin volunteers to go for help,
while Bill and Hank enter the mine. On the way back into town, Kevin is
bitten by a vampire. While searching the mine, Bill and Hank come across a
meeting of the vampires, led by Mr Danvers, while the Master, Vlathos from
Lathos, watches. Danvers unites the "Light of the Moon" diamond with two
lesser diamonds, and the light from the moon starts pouring down. The plan
is to harvest the light from the sun and moon and plunge the earth into
eternal darkness. Then shall the vampires feed. Knowing that they are
outnumbered, Bill and Hank decide to call for help but, when Hank tries to
phone out, all the telephone lines appear to be down. When he tries to
drive out of Knollwood, he is stopped by Mr Jonas and his Neighborhood
Watch deputy. Whatever is going on in Knollwood, it looks like Bill and
Hank are on their own.It is the afternoon of the soccer game. While the fans cheer as the
two teams play, Mr Danvers rallies his vampires and they begin biting the
other players. Meanwhile, Hank and Bill constuct a series of reflecting
mirrors out of plywood and tinfoil, which they use to divert the sunlight
and shine it on Vlathos [Cosmin Sofron]. But the sun is setting fast. With no other
option, Bill picks up the Light of the Moon diamond and smashes it on the
floor. Vlathos burns up, and the vampire army turns back into humans.
