What happens

Feeders is a 1996 American science fiction horror film written and directed by John and Mark Polonia and Jon McBride. A shot-on-video (SOV) film made on a low budget of $500, Feeders follows two friends, Derek (McBride) and Bennett (John Polonia), on a road trip; while travelling through Pennsylvania, the duo encounter small extraterrestrials who have landed on Earth in order to hunt and eat humans. Feeders was released direct-to-video in 1996, with Blockbuster Video acquiring it for rental. It was one of the most popular independent film rentals at Blockbuster that year. In 1998, a Christmas-themed sequel, Feeders 2: Slay Bells, was released. A third film, Feeders 3: The Final Meal, was released in 2022. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
