“One of the finest pieces of Sci-fi cinema to come out of England, or for that matter any other country."
– Lang Thompson, TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES -
“CHILDREN OF THE DAMNED is a gorgeous horror film with a solid story, great cast, and amazing sets.”
– HORRORSOCIETY.COM -
“Tapping into fears of globalization, the Cold War and nuclear warfare, the collapse of tradition, and the shift in morality in the rising generation. It's a fascinating film with a lot to say and it says it very, very ably and powerfully.”
