Star Hunter (1996)

When the team bus is full, three bench warmers and two cheerleaders are forced to take the short bus home with the principal, Mrs. March.  They get lost and end up in the bad part of town, where the only pay phone is making a weird buzzing noise. So they decide to look for a building with lights on where someone might have a phone they can use.

Most of the neighborhood seems to be deserted, but in the only lit building they meet Reicher, a blind man who has a collection of weapons on his wall.  He's very hospitable and tells them to get something to eat while he calls a taxi for them.  What they don't know is that he's one of the Star Hunters and they are about to become the game.

Star Hunters work in pairs, where one is the lure and the other the killer. No one shall ask how Reicher got the job as the lure since he is blind and they had to enter his building and shout to get his attention.  The killer wears a suit that looks similar to the Predator but appears to actually be the Saurod costume from Masters of the Universe.

When a couple of the kids find a collection of heads in Reichers bathroom, the game is on.  As they flee for their lives, they find that there is a force field around the neighborhood and their wits are the only thing that will keep them alive. Unfortunatly most of them aren't that bright. But on the plus side, another alien possesses the stoner kid to try to keep everyone safe. Unfortunatly he doesn't do a very good job.

The killer has a suit that can regenerate and repair any injuries to the Star Hunter.  He also has something similar to a large flip phone that he gets reports from the lure. The primitive graphics show the lures face while he quotes the passage of time in keyless - whatever that equals - and tells the killer how many people are left to kill.

The strangest scene in the movie is when two of the kids manage to escape and head to the police station to report that their friends have been murdered. Now I know they are talking about aliens which is stupid, but they're also reporting a murder.  So you'd think the police would take that part seriously enough to investigate. But they're skeptical because no one in the neighborhood has reported anything. Yes, because no one has ever been murdered without multiple people reporting a ruckus.

This is one tedious movie.  The sad thing is that it has Stella Stevens and Roddy McDowell in it. They deserve better.
