The movie, which originally aired on November 28, 1973, tells the story of a suburban neighborhood and family that is repeatedly terrorized by a group of privileged young men from neighboring families.

The film was directed Richard T. Heffron, and written by writer William Wood. The film was originally titled One Angry Man.
