Village of the Damned (1960)
Country: GB
Technical: bw 78m
Director: Wolf Rilla
Cast: George Sanders, Barbara Shelley, Michael Gwynn
Synopsis:
Parents in an English village begin to have concerns at the invasion of their son's class by uncommonly bright, but strangely affectless, blond-haired children.
Review:
Well made, faithful, unpretentious Wyndham adaptation (The Midwich Cuckoos), with the kind of classy acting talent not so common in this genre before 1968. The effect of the ending is somewhat vitiated by an unnecessary, un-special effect.
