Featured review
This is a cool and creepy old flick from way back.
I saw this movie at the theatre when I was twelve years old and it scared the crap out of me. At the time I thought it was a cool movie but now if I saw it I'm sure it wouldn't hit me like that. I'm sure I would still like it though because I am very nostalgic about old horror movies which are my favorite genre of films. I would love to find this movie for sale so I could see it again. There was just something so creepy about this film. I mean it was foggy and those children just creeped me out.The location of the film is perfect as it was a creepy little wooded town in the middle of nowhere. If you don't mind B movies and you like horror a lot like me than this is definitely a movie you should check out.
