Description

A family anticipates a Christmas filled with sledding, laughter and hot cocoa as they head to their vacation home in the secluded back-country. The holiday cheer takes a fast turn for the worst after a mysterious flu-like virus plagues the children. One by one the children become deadly. Amidst the suspicion, mayhem and murder, the parents fight for survival against their own twisted offspring.

  • Good, Not Excellent!!

    The movie was good but could be Excellent if the director have a little bit control with the camara in some good scenes like... when Casey try to save Lain and at the same time she was helping her mother to not be kill by his brother, that scene have a lot of mistake. In the other hand, the effect and the way the director expose the dead wasn't good. To me... the actors was good special Casey "Hannah Tointon", she was the best.

    The entitled brats of the well to do screech and kill. (So what else is new?) Was there a script for this debacle or did they just videotape annoying yuppies and their spawn? Seriously, it's unintelligible.
  • Makes you want to never have children

    I expect much from British horror movies, and this film does not disappoint. I do not like small children, and watching the kids in this movie scream, yell, run and act like little monsters cements my dislike. This whole film was an effective horror movie, not only because there were so many children, but because they were actually convincing psychopaths.
  • Definetly a favorite!!

    I was actually really surprised by this movie. I expected it to be kind of dumb and slapdash put together, but the creepy factor was definitely turned up to 11. Very decent cinematography and way better acting than is usually warranted for something low-budget like this. Definitely had me on the edge of my seat a couple times. I'm not sure it's worth the purchase, but if you come across it for rental, it's worth a couple bucks.

    Other than hysterical adults and lots of stawberry jam and yogert, the most amazing thing about this movie is that it only has two and a half minutes of credits instead of the standerd seven!!

    After looking at the tittle and the trailer,i knew right away this movie is a christmas version of 'Children Of The Korn'.But it holds up into the horror i think a little better than 'Korn'.But the plot is a little of a disappointment.But the movie will keep you watching until the very end,and thats worth your money,after all,thats the whole reason to rent a movie right?...
