Parents

Michael is a young boy living in a typical 1950s suburban home, but his life is unsettled by bizarre, horrific nightmares and a persistent unease toward his parents. He begins to suspect they are cooking more than just hamburgers on the grill outside, a suspicion he finds hard to articulate. He struggles to share his fears with his new-found friend Sheila or with the school's social worker.
