Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCo-writer / producer Carlton J. Albright struck several deals in the course of making this film. One involved giving to the favored charity of the cemetery caretakers in order to use the cemetery seen in the film. Another involved hiring a local girl as a production assistant so her father would agree to the use of his house.
- GoofsWhen the Sheriff first comes upon the school bus, it's parked across from the cemetery. When the sheriff returns with Tommy's mother, it's now parked next to the cemetery.
- Quotes
Dr. Joyce Gould: I just don't know how Leslie's gonna take it when I tell her Tommy's missing.
Sheriff Billy Hart: Don't tell her.
Dr. Joyce Gould: ...That's one way to deal with it...
- Alternate versionsThe Vinegar Syndrome home video release, as well as streaming releases, feature an additional scene set in a diner in which the sheriff speaks to a waitress.
Featured review
I saw this movie at the theatre when I was twelve years old and it scared the crap out of me. At the time I thought it was a cool movie but now if I saw it I'm sure it wouldn't hit me like that. I'm sure I would still like it though because I am very nostalgic about old horror movies which are my favorite genre of films. I would love to find this movie for sale so I could see it again. There was just something so creepy about this film. I mean it was foggy and those children just creeped me out.The location of the film is perfect as it was a creepy little wooded town in the middle of nowhere. If you don't mind B movies and you like horror a lot like me than this is definitely a movie you should check out.
