action
A father is driving along the street in a camper with his two children Annie and Johnny when suddenly a tire bursts. They stop at the nearby rest area to change it. There the children meet Joshua playing Frisbee. When the frisbee flies into the adjacent forest, the children go in search of it and meet there critter hunter Charlie. This gives the children a brief review of who he is and why he is here. Meanwhile, Critters sneak up to the camper and hide there. After the tire problem has been resolved, the children are called back and headed for home, a multi-story family house in Los Angeles .
The arrival is quite chaotic, as obviously the brakes on the camper don't want to play along. When the vehicle finally comes to a standstill, the critters break away from it unnoticed and initially nest in the basement of the house. The caretaker hired by the owner should do everything possible to chase the residents away. But after the latter refuses to continue doing anything against the residents without paying, the owner and his son set off to take matters into their own hands. Meanwhile, the caretaker is the first to fall victim to the critters in the basement. A tenant discovered this a little later and was attacked herself. But at the last second Annie comes to the rescue, who calls her father to do so. But the critters don't let up and attack them too with their numbing spikes. Annie can beat the Critters at short notice and they all flee via the stairwell to the upper floors, where they meet their friend Martia.
Owner Mr. Briggs, who has meanwhile arrived, cuts the telephone and power lines in the basement to annoy the tenants. When he and his son go to an apartment in the lower hallway, the two of them argue and shortly afterwards Mr. Briggs is alone with the door in the apartment facing the critters. Any help comes too late for him. Everyone else, including Briggs' son Joshua, are now barricading themselves upstairs. But the Critters find a way again and when the people escape from the apartment, they only narrowly escape the Critters attack. While the critters feast on the food supplies and other items in the apartment, Martia's attempt to escape fails. Annie's attempt to climb back down the elevator shaft is also suddenly stopped when a critter crosses her path. He calls his comrades over with a shrill sound and just as they are about to attack Annie together, Charlie finally appears again. After a jam, both escape upstairs to the other and finally take care of the "last" critters on the roof.
