Beware!: Children at Play (1989)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directed by Mik Cribben<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Troma.\u00a0 One word review right?\u00a0 You know what you\u2019re in for when you see the word Troma.\u00a0 Shlock, cheese, corn, whatever.\u00a0 This popped up on a list of disturbing movies so I had to watch it.\u00a0 Plus it is a horror movie with kids killing people and getting killed, which is rare right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a cult of kids, in the pine barrens of New Jersey, that kill people.\u00a0 Apparently they worship Beowulf or something, idk it is kind of shoe horned in.\u00a0 In typical Troma fashion, the storyline is kind of thrown out the window, so is the production quality!\u00a0 The acting is on par for Troma, so yeah bad right?\u00a0 The special effects were hilarious.\u00a0 There is a scene where a guy gets cut in half with a scythe and he pulls himself apart, it is gruesome and probably the most believable gore in the movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The end is what everyone talks about.\u00a0 The villagers realize these kids are killing people and are brainwashed.\u00a0 So they decide to get revenge, and they go on a kid killing spree.\u00a0 These aren\u2019t teenagers, some of the kids are like 4 or 5 and it is a little disturbing.\u00a0 The acting is so bad though you have to laugh.\u00a0 My favorite scene is when an older kid, probably around 15 gets his head blown off with a shotgun.\u00a0 I laughed so hard at that.\u00a0 I love a good head explosion, and a bad head explosion even more.\u00a0 This was Threat Level Midnight quality haha.\u00a0 I was almost waiting for Agent Michael Scarn to say \u201cjokes on you, that guy was a convicted animal rapist!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beware Children At Play is bad, yes very bad.\u00a0 Is it worth a watch?\u00a0 Yeah, I think so.\u00a0 I had fun during some scenes just laughing at the absurdity, but parts also drag on.\u00a0 I found myself saying \u201cwtf am I watching\u201d numerous times.\u00a0 This all makes this movie hard to grade.\u00a0 I think I\u2019ll settle on a C-, comedy factor boosts this greatly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
