This is a horribly bad B movie with stupid dialogue, what a mess guys. The acting isn't too good either. Go do something else, anything is better than this....

Director Roxanne Benjamin comes up with a fairly mysterious work, but it does not last the entire running time. The concept of evil children has become so exhausted that it is quite challenging to squeeze some tension out of it. The pity is that in this case the children's acting is unconvincing, meaning that the tension build-up cannot be missed anywhere. The adults do a little better, but fail to inject emotion into the fairly stiff script. Visually, Benjamin also directs fairly bare, which means the film lacks atmosphere. Once the more imaginative elements come out of the closet, There's Something Wrong with the Children suddenly revives, despite the sparseness of these sequences. Because it's all quite bearable as a whole, I give it some extra points, but I hope that most directors now realize that these kinds of ideas turn out to be foolish 90% of the time.
