horror film directed by Mik Cribben and distributed byTroma Entertainment . The film follows the inhabitants of a small rural town whose children are disappearing at an alarming rate and whose adults are simutaneously being killed in a ritualistic fashion. It is revealed early on that the kids are being inducted into a group of cannibalistic zombie children who live in the woods.The film is one of Troma's most controversial titles due to its gruesome finale, a ten-minute sequence where the townspeople brutally murder each of the cannibalistic children using firearms, pitchforks, and other assorted weapons. According to
Lloyd Kaufman , when the film's trailer played at theCannes Film Festival before a screening of 'Tromeo and Juliet ', nearly half of the theatre walked out in protest.References
