PET SHOP is a laughable kid's fantasy flick from the team at Full Moon Entertainment. The setting is an ordinary pet shop, where a couple of evil aliens show up and disguise themselves in vaguely human-ish form in order to devour mankind. Thankfully, some local kids are wise to their ways and decide to fight back. This low budget comedy is an oddball concoction of laughs, overacting, and random special effects sequence. Much of the running time is occupied by four 'cute' alien creatures - basic puppets which look a bit like Gizmo - which periodically turn into their Earthly counterparts. It's occasionally sweet but mostly insignificant, although it does scream "1990s" for nostalgia lovers.
