Wonderfully wicked and nasty comes from Tom Shankland The Children. The children’s horror film The Omen has indeed witnessed time and again his resurrection. Whether it be in The Good Son, The Village of the Damned, or up to date The Orphan, Fall 39 or Hannah Montana, what better way than to hoard of evil, as the kids, which one would touch a hair?

Young parents and people who can not see any blood or broken bones, should make the Children, however, a bow.
