Mikey
Remember Jason and Freddy were kids once too.
Directed by Dennis Dimster
Produced by Imperial Entertainment, Tapestry Films
A dark slasher about an emotionally detached child killer who infiltrates a loving family, built on the premise that evil can wear an innocent face.
Mikey just needs a good stable home. He's bounced from foster home to foster home his whole life. He finally lands himself with a new loving family, but their perfect little child is not what he appears to be. His previous caretakers all died of mysterious "accidents" that weren't really accidents at all. Mikey is a cold blooded killer, and it doesn't take long for him to aim his sights on his new adoptive family and anyone else who stands in his way.
