Storyline
After 4 years, Clifford Harnish returns to his hometown of Pocahontas, Virginia, hoping to save his family and make for himself the happy childhood he never had. Unfortunately, he has arrived just in time to see his parents' divorce made final. He also gets to watch his mother sink into an alcoholic depression while his father builds a new life with a new woman. Soon Cliff decides to take matters into his own hands, using the methods he learned while traipsing the country with Neo-Nazis. Adapted from the play "Home Fires Burning."

I've seen some "bad" movies in my time, but this one is really rancid. The ever lovely Gillian Anderson is the only even remotely redeeming quality of this film. If, like me, you just must see Gillian in a role other than Scully, have your remote handy and be prepared to fast forward through most of this horrible movie.
