Plot Synopsis:
Reluctant teacher Jim Norman returns to his hometown and raises some serious ghosts from his past - three evil teens who killed his older brother and died in a fiery train crash twenty-seven years earlier.

Favorite Moments:

  • "Sometimes, son, they're in our hearts. Sometimes they're in our thoughts. But if they're unhappy enough - if something's not done settled - sometimes they come back."
  • Based on a Stephen King short story in Night Shift
  • Robert Rusler from Thrashin'! ("Nice shooting, Jimbo! But you can't kill what's already dead.") I have such a soft spot for evil, undead teens.
  • Inspired two sequels: Sometimes They Come Back... Again and Sometimes They Come Back... For More
