The third remake in John Carpenter's career (after MEMOIRS OF AN INVISIBLE MAN and THE THING), VILLAGE OF THE DAMNED comes from the novel, THE MIDWICH CUCKOOS written by John Wyndham, and the 1960s black and white film about the horrors of the nuclear age. Updated and spiced with the usual Carpenter edge, this remake is every bit as scary as the first one. In a sleepy town, ten strange children are born at the same time, all of them possessing platinum blone hair, piercing green eyes and supernatural powers. The intelligent, quiet children are disliked by the townspeople, and when people begin to die the first suspects are the "special" children. This was the last film Christopher Reeve made before his tragic paralysis, and he gives an excellent performance as one of the doctors who must stop the children from destroying the town. Once again John Carpenter creates a horrifying film with his talent for mood and unexpected frights, proving once again he is a modern master of horror.

    God what a freaky movie!!!

    By jasonkrueger13  Sep 20, 2003

    I never saw the original so I thought this movie was exceptionally scary and reminded me of the Corn movies.The kids were very well done and when they did that eye thing God did that scare me!!!They killed and killed and killed and didn't care ex...cept one!!!There is a cute little boy who doesn't want to harm or kill but there is a twist at the end!!!Kirstie Alley and Reeve were the perfect choice for this intriguing and suspenseful thriller!!!Although some of the way people were killed were quite disturbing!!!For instance the evil and very talented girl forces her mom with her mind to jump off the cliff that is near there house!!!!The problem:THE WOMAN WAS PREGNANT!!!Other than that and a disgusting scene having to do with Alley not gonna say anymore this movie is very good!!!Check it out John Carpenter made this one and boy is it full of shocks,twists,turns,and a very shocking ending!!!Let's put it this way the way it ended sequel potential has to be floating out there somewhere!!!!Overall:scar
    y,twisted,creepy,tense,ta
    ut,and gripping till the very end!!!
