Why tonight?

  • Under two hours — there is still an evening on the other side of it.
  • It goes hard on frights — not a wind-down.

The story

Rancher Cole Hillman is fed up of rabbits plaguing his fields. Zoologist Roy Bennett conducts an experiment to curb their population, but it gives rise to giant rabbits that terrorise the town.
