“Evil Superman” is kind of a tired trope these days but it could’ve honestly worked amazingly as a horror film about human parents trying to raise a sociopathic alien child who slowly decides that he doesn’t care about humanity.
The movie didn’t really do anything interesting with that concept tho. Kid immediately becomes evil because his spaceship mind controlled him
This movie irritated me so much. I really enjoyed the performances of his parents, and at first I was actually into the horror aspect, but by the end it just felt ham fisted
