Beware: Children at Play
These Aren't Children...They Are Demons!
Directed by Mik Cribben
Produced by Troma Entertainment
A dark horror film centered on corrupted children turned violent by cult influence, trading psychological depth for visceral threat and parental dread.
Parents are in a panic as their children mysteriously disappear. Little do they know that the only thing worse than their children disappearing would be them coming back. After the youngsters of Ellenburg fall under the ruthless control of a cult leader, they turn on their parents with gruesome results.
