Beware the Children.
From the master of suspense, John Carpenter, comes a chilling new version of the sci-fi classic that stunned an entire generation. Something is terribly wrong in the tiny village of Midwich. After an unseen force invades a quiet coastal town, ten women mysteriously find themselves pregnant. Local physician Dr. Alan Chaffee (Christopher Reeve) and government scientist Dr. Susan Verner (Kirstie Alley) join forces when the women simultaneously give birth...and the reign of horror begins. All born with platinum-white hair, fierce intellect and steely, cobalt eyes, the emotionless offspring display eerie psychic abilities and remarkable powers which they use with deadly consequences, unleashing a storm of terror. Who will prevail in this "survival of the fittest"? In what The New York Times calls "one scarifying trip," the people of Midwich must try to find a way to stop the children in the Village of the Damned.
