THE CHILDREN (2008) - Oct. 13, 2009
A really effective horror movie about two couples who go to a secluded house around Christmas with their children. It quickly becomes apparent that a strange illness is affecting their kids in a very sinister way. The director does a really good job of establishing and sustaining tension, and in fact the whole thing is quite well directed (and somewhat Kubrickian in parts, with at least a couple of overt nods to the Shining). Good stuff. ***1/2
