- The trailer for Bob Balaban's directorial debut, where a boy discovers his parents' idyllic 1950s suburban lifestyle may be hiding a dark secret - namely, what is in the "leftovers" they eat every night? Or rather, who? Stars Randy Quaid, Mary Beth Hurt and Sandy Dennis. Not featured on the DVD available from Lionsgate.
I KNEW I WASN'T CRAZY! I remember seeing this movie as a kid and no one believed me! This movie used to scare the hell out me and I couldn't remember what it was called, but I kept trying to find it! I'm so glad this wasn't a figment of my imagination!!! Lol
I know! Saw this back in the early 90s on TV. I thought it had been erased from the planet!
Curlytop Asmr Lee Imagine trying to convince people there was a movie you remember watching as a kid, about parents eating humans! Lol
I'm sure people thought I was crazy 😂
Did you see it on the E! Network?
this movie is on the amazon prime video service
i had the exact same thing
I saw this when I was really young and it freaked me out big time
This was the strangest and most uncomfortable movie I have ever seen.
NHOINouttaTEN try Happiness
I saw this years ago when I was a kid. For years I have been trying to remember the title. Such a crazy movie
This film was worth the price of admission just for the costumes, sets and music alone; add to that terrific performances, and everyone should see this. It's dark, funny, scary, gruesome and wonderful.
You have said it all Sharon, I love everything about this film too. The casting is inspired. Nice to know there are people with Taste out there.
"In dark places, you can be yourself." Randy Quaid disturbed me in this movie. He's a great actor
I thought my mom was trying to feed me human meat when I was tripping on acid.
One of the most brilliant and underrated dark films of the past 20 years.
just saw this film recently, hugely underrated film, love the 50s wholesome family with a dark secret vibe, a proper horror film.
FABULOUS FUCKING MOVIE. How did this not get more renown? ...or do I live under a rock? anyways. Telling everyone. cheers.
When I was little I thought my parents were evil secret agents that snuck out at night and killed people 😻
brilliant movie, so creepy
🔥🔥
WOW. This film changed my life, period.

In this movie, when asked by his son what the leftovers were, the father replied, "Leftovers to be."
+GamerZero Yes, simply Nick and Lily's way of playing games with their son.
Why the heck did my parents think this was a good movie to rent for me when I was 10 years old. I never asked for them to rent it. I think they must have seen the title and thought it was something else.
lol his parents think Michaels problems are in his head but michael knows there on his plate haha 😂😂😂
They actually do know his problems really are on his plate; this is their way of playing games with him. And now I see what some user meant when they compared this to a cult movie, because Nick and Lily are trying to brainwash Michael into becoming a cannibal like themselves. Really, if you think about it, that’s just what they’re trying to do-brainwash him so as to turn “bad guy,” there is even that one scene towards the end where Nick tells Michael,”You’re an outsider, you’re not like the rest of the world, but us.”
The whole high school theatre gang went to see it on opening weekend, we felt very edgy and cool afterwards. Retro-ironic kitsch was very much the temper of the time. Throw in some transgressive horror and violence and 18 year old me though it was $4:50 well spent.
dark stuff. his visions creeped me out.....which is what they designed to do...
i didnt eat meat for a while after that first time i seen it
Omg same!!!
May I ask why?
I WISH I could find this movie! I remember watching this as a young kid.
You like this movie
It's on Prime now lol 😉
I found it on ROKU CHANNEL
Randy Quaid always cracks me up!
I don't know about that, but it seems I remember reading, that the movie is supposed to take place in Indiana(the state).
Saw this when I was 5. Scared me
Horror movies back then were so friggin awesome! I wish i could remember the one i saw that parents were mutated bugs that ate disgusting shit after they tuck their kids into bed. It was fn creepy!!
Was that Meet The Applegates?
Meet the Applegates is hilarious 🤣
I saw part of this movie when I was a kid. For some reason, the scene with the bloody hand in the sink and the bleeding refrigerator stuck in my head. It only took me until yesterday to figure out it came from this movie.
The last things we want on our minds,like such disgusting gore and blood,etc,do have a way of remaining indelibly in our minds,it seems,I agree.
MrJamieMurph4141969 Yeah, it's especially odd that said concepts you'd remember from something relatively obscure.
+Channeleven i remember a bed and blood, liters of blood
Was that where the hand was flopping around in the garbage disposal?
Yes.
I thought this movie was actually pretty good for it's time. The camera work such as the angles they used in some scenes was pretty creative and even though it's a horror comedy, it was decieving. There wasn't much funny comedy in it. It was much more darker than I was expecting. And lastly, Randy Quaid was amazing in it. He's was creepy guy and nailed it perfectly. :)
Man, I remember seeing this when I was a kid... It really scarred me for a while about eating meat.
I've only seen this movie once when I was like 11 yrs old, I'm 27 now & it's not becuz I didn't like it. A matter of fact I LOVED it! But it is difficult 2 find. I'm a BIG fan of horror movies, even though its more funny than scary. But I just LOVE how sick & twisted it is. PulpPractical I agree with u 100%! This is a brilliant film & Randy Quaid shoulda won an award 4 his role. I recommend if u haven't watched this film, well u should do so. :) & this goes 4 u Lifesaver 913.
great film. i am glad this film has gone through a critical re-assessment and is finally getting the praise/attention it so rightfully deserves.
god I remember this movie. it gave me nightmares but that could be because I was 8 when I saw it. :P
I love this film, used to have it on VHS, need to get DVD now...
i was trying to google the movie where the parents die to find the romantic comedy "Life as we Know it" .. but came across the wiki page for this movie instead... it sounded interesting haha
Why do they call people who eat other people "canonballs"?
It's cannibals.
Hs. I didn't really think this movie actually existed
I remember renting this movie from Blockbuster an thinking it as a chessy 80s horror movie about parents turning on there kids.
Have you even seen it? I thought it was brilliant and underrated.
Very super scary 🍖🍗🥩🦴🤤😬😱🩸!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's wrong with his Parents? They can be that evil.
Children and teens don't get along with parents perfectly
If u are a very serious Vegan, stay away from this Film, we don't want u too have a Seziure 😵
This movies not really the scary, just really fucked up.
used to rent this movie as a kid all the time. . saw it a few yrs ago on Netflix, Still good Underrated movie
I saw it on Netflix to my sister wanted to watch it and we turned it off the first 10 minutes
ok when i was maybe 4 my next door neighbors who were like around my age and there siblings around 10 years old, well one day they made me watch this and it scared the crap out of me, i ran screaming home and went to my parents and beg them not to eat me. Of course my parents were livid at my neighbors. I mean geez who does that 2 a kid
I also thought it was pretty well executed for its premise, it actually makes a decent psychological horror.
Yes, Michael really is "beyond his years," certainly smart, and intuitive, for a 10-year-old; he KNOWS that what his parents tell him is NOT true, that they have been eating LEFTOVERS, every single night, since they moved to their new town. And YES, you would have thought a sequel could have followed_GRANDPARENTS-due to the way this ends.
I seen this on IFC when I lived in Ontario a few years ago.. Loved it right away.
i may try this out.
And it scared me shitless. Seriously.
this is getting released on blu ray in 2017
29 more days
You don't gots to lie Carter. You don't have to lie
Because would you Adam & Eve it 2017 has been & gone & has sicko 1989s PARENTS been released on Blu-Ray ???
Has it eckers like !!!!
As I say you don't gots to lie Carter!!
Yay!
Randy Quaid is great! Seen 'Freaked' with him? It's bizarre but brilliant!
I love this movie
i saw this when i was a kid and thought it was brilliant. it didnt even dawn on me till years later that his father was developing paraquat for use in jungle warfare.
this movie has one of the greatest lines ever: "defoliants are a growth industry."lol
I know the leftovers thing wasn't suppose to be funny but I find it HILARIOUS!!!! XD I should make some leftovers soon. ;)
the characters freaked the hell out of me
I first saw this film in 94. It is a wonderful film. I do wish they would release it on region 2 DVD. However I am thankful for multiregional DVD players ^^ I am so much looking forward to seeing it again when it arrives.
I saw this on cable when it first appeared and it floored me! Not sure if it would have the same effect today. Great nostalgia though. :) Thanks for posting this.

I saw this movie several years ago, and while it was scary, there were also things that didn't make sense. For instance, if these parents really wanted to raise their son as a cannibal, why didn't they eat this strange meat before they moved to this area, and why were they intent on hiding the fact that it was human flesh. Another scene that didn't make sense was the one where the body was hidden in the cellar. Why didn't they eat it?
A, easy access to dead bodies.
Hiding it because it wouldn't go over well. That's why they're always moving.
B, how much can you eat at once?
Fallout 3 quest? ahha
anyone else remember the creepy sexual tension between Michael and Sheila?
I thought there was something more on that as I recalled...
But then. If you watch "Psycho," you swear you see her get hacked up. You don't. 1960, not that stupid remake.
This movie is a train wreck...i remember watching it and not being able to look away.I loved it!
Love this movie and all it's Kitschiness!
fucking love this film
OMFG......WHERE IS THIS MEAT COMING FROM ARGHHHHHHHHHH
i remember at some new years party me and my sister went upstairs into our bedroom at our grandparents and we were watching this movie and our little cousin just had to hang out with us and she didnt like the movie so we had to change it and its been about 9 years and im hoping this is the movie ive been looking for
i font like how the parents got mad when there son walked in on them haveing sex I mean come on it was ont his Fault they keft thre bedrom dorr wide open anyone else?
Actually,they were down in the family room,when Michael walks downstairs,claiming he's thirsty.
And he was eating out the mom and had blood on his mouth.......
@@davidhartding800 I disagree. I think they left the lipstick so it smeared and looked like blood. Or the blood was real, and thus a huge sheet in the living room floor.
But why not plastic, at that...? Does she not have anything else to do but clean up set/dried blood all morning?
I need to watch this but cannot find it anywhere
mungomoo buy it Amazon
Did you try the library? They can get all kinds of stuff.
To know this comment is 3 years old but tubi has it for free
Haha what a Fucked up movie! And my parents used to let my sister and I borrow this from blockbuster all the time! Parents 🙄🤣
this looks pretty scary seriously somebody please upload it I've never seen it before.
@MiSZJUiCYYY The original was so amazing though, why would you want a remake when so many remakes, particularly horror movie remakes, are so terrible?
ok the only thing that looks scary in the movie is the father, the way he looks with those creepy glasses on is creepy
A creepy-ass idea. Amd old movie. Must be worthwile. I love the horror movies from 70's and 80's. :)
Randy Quaid’s greatest role, IMHO.
Saw this movie when it came out....Awesome!!!!
This movie is on Netflix if anyone is interested in watching it.
"Now there's a new name for terror" - RANDY QUAID

*LOL* XD
I remember my sister putting this on because I got to watch Demonic Toys and she didn't want to watch that but I liked it and she wanted to watch a movie she wanted to watch and she picked this movie but I said it looked awful but we turned it on anyway and we turned it off the first 10 minutes and we both never watched it since
The mother wasn't favorite
I can't believe a nice couple are cannibals
But Randy's character was an asshole in the movie
@@rowdyroughman haha I forgot I made this comment
So. You're very young, then? Or were? Because this is rather *TAME* compared to what a lot of people do.
Want some ideas? Irl? Arthur Rathburn. A body broker. When you leave your body to science, you lose all rights.
Different laws than organ donation.
So, he'd chop up dead people and rent or sell body parts. Got caught shipping a bloody box FedEx and got busted! True story!
Funeral home people working for hire.
Tri state funeral home. The cops quit counting when they found 330 corpses just dumped around the property. He lied and said the crematorium didn't work.
Necrophilia. Type in guy who raped over 100 corpses. There's more than ONE, and the black guy's boss at county KNEW. His wife's interviews were hilarious and bizarre...
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 yeah I was pretty young about probably 14 when I made this comment not sure if I was being sarcastic or not 😂
Furthermore, I never got(and still don't)get the one scene,where Sheila has "quit school," and they both go out of their way(basically her doing, though)to "destroy his house," I mean, since it really has nothing to do with the rest of the plot. Unless the part where Nick(Quaid)is giving Michael a talking to, for what he did, and ordering him, that he is to have nothing more to do with Sheila, could be an indication as to how wrong Nick is about Sheila(she really is trying to help Michael).
was scary/gory? =)
Bloody. Not really gory.
quiero ver la pelicula pero no la encuentro
LMAO I remeber this movie I cracked my jaw because soooooo raw scripted including the soundtrack was just great :)..Well mom's calling for dinner LEFT OVERS AGAIN #$@^!!
the Parents are so sadistic sick serial killers especially the father but, another average low budget horror movie
According to what someone had told me once, Long Island Iced Tea was originally made spiked with alcohol in it(I'm referring to the scene where Michael's parents and his friend Sheila's parents are playing bridge, and Sheila's mom announces that the iced tea they're drinking "is from Long Island,"when Lily(Michael's mom, played by Mary Beth Hurt),claims that she's starting to feel tipsy). And I had heard, that the 1950s were when the "original"brands of Long Island Iced Tea were made. I think this is supposed to take place in fall 1958-if you notice carefully in the kitchen scenes at Laemle's, there is a calendar, and it always seemed to say "September 1958."
bizzare but funny though!
@nessa3545 The trailer is more accurate. I see this is categorized as both, horror and comedy, or black comedy, and I suppose horror sells better than comedy. Hence, the trailer. But then again this film _is_ 99% horror and not comedy. Gets very disturbing closer to the end.
Saw this available on Hulu thought I see a trailer before watching. I guess I will give it a try.
i have this movie on VHS
Worlock
netflix brought me here
Thumbs up and reply if you saw this on the E! Channel in the early 90's.
first and only time i saw this movie was on a mushroom trip, it really freaked me out
Same here. And i think its the scariest shit ever. Seriously.
This reminds me of the music video Feather by Coheed and Cambria hehehe
i am going to watch it on netflix tonight
