Did it to myself again. You'll see.
(59) The Children (2008): Another Ghost House Underground "horror" film that had so much potential a yet, fell so very, very short. This one could have been really good if only the director had developed the story. Why was one child so very bad and in control of so much? Why did she want so many people harmed, hurt, and killed? Nothing is ever explained, and, if that weren't bad enough, all the "money" shots were edited. Virtually all the violence and gore was implied. I don't mind that in a movie when it's not central to the story, but this movie, in theory, is of the horror genre and the other Ghost House Films I saw had no shortage of graphic gore. Perhaps it was because of the child actors. Anyway, another disappointing horror film from GHU. Gonna wait a while before I tackle the remaining 5 films under this label. Can't recommend at all.
