The first (very disturbing) five minutes of this film consists of actual archival footage of the atrocities of war, famine and genocide and is more horrific then most of the scenarios presented in any fictional story.
Once you get past that, what you'll find is a pretty solid ...( read more)
A sometimes interesting and sometimes cripplingly flawed film that shoots itself in the foot too many times to be great but is strong enough overall to be good.
Well done film with an interesting concept. It is more a thriller than horror. The acting is good and the action is tense. Surely inspired Stephen King's "Children of the Corn" short story.
A lost treasure amidst the cinematic ocean,the question is: do you dare watching a film where only the idea of killing a child is necessary?The much-talked footage in the beginning is the premise for a haunting adventure under the boiling sun.The couple as an allegory of drifting...( read more)

A truly awesome horror movie. It's a real shame this little gem has not got more attention. "Who Can Kill A Child" deserves just as much, if not more, praise as most of the horror classics from the seventies.
Was a creepy film with some disturbing real images of acts of war in the beginning related to kids.Descent performances specially by the leading actress.Similar themes to Children of the corn & Village of the damned.Suspenseful in parts & also did like how the film ended.
