a topsy-turvy nightmare scenario where familial love is a mortal weakness, infanticide a salvation, and the arrival of a newborn a source of terror. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- The "scary little kid" subgenre has never been scarier or more nihilistic. Full Review

The Children is a feeble reminder of an exploitation trend seen at its most ruthless in a picture like It's Alive! Everything considered, it's difficult to resent The Children for being too inept to become equally hateful. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Released in 1980, The Children went on to become a box office smash and one of the top grossing films of that year. Lost for over two decades, Troma Entertainment, with the assistance of Writer/Producer Carlton J. Albright, has gone to great lengths to track down one of the only surviving original prints to create an exclusive new digital transfer of this legendary cult classic!

After their school bus drives through a yellow cloud of nuclear waste, the children of a small town are transformed into atomic zombies with a lust for blood and carnage!

Product Description:

After a school bus passes through a cloud of radiation that leaked from a nearby nuclear power plant, the children inside are transformed into wall-eyed ghouls who char things to a crisp on contact.
