Director Bob Clark
Soundtrack English; Dolby Digital 5.1 Re; Behind The Scenes

A movie director and his troupe of actor friends vacation on a remote island where they dig up a corpse and jokingly perform a ceremony to resurrect it. It works! Interesting, garishly-colored zombie makeups and an offbeat counter-cultural feel make this an interesting curiosity.

4 stars GREAT!
I remember seeing this as a 9 yr old. It scared the hell out of me. I was glad it was still daylight when we got out of the movies. I always remembered it but haven't seen it since. I'm sure now it will seem corny but can't wait for my kids to see it as they love scary movies.

5 stars little known classic
Brilliant over the top acting, in particular from alan ormsby who subjects us to a tour de force of acting range of Oliverian standards.

5 stars Isn't that scary folks?
This movie scared me as a kid when they used to show it on Channel 9 in NYC back in the day. Much scarier than the Excorcist. The only movie that can rank with "Children...." is "The Other" made in 1972. You shouldn't expect a crisp print however. This is a low budget film and the picture is what it is no matter what the format.

4 stars A Must See For Zombie Movie Lovers
I think the first time I saw this move was when I was about 9 (35 now). I loved it then and now after all these years, I still love it. Yeah, it's corny and the acting isn't that great, but when the dead rise up, it's pretty cool. I am a Night of the Living Dead fan, and I can say that Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things is just as erie. I watched it with my 9 year old, and we laughed...we cried! Orville gave her the creeps! But we both laughed when Jeffy tinkled in his pants!!! Poor little Anya, (what a nutcase).

Britain's longest-running sitcom, set in the village of Pennine, follows a group of irreverent old-timers in the Yorkshire Dales. The show's graying residents may be positively ancient, but their behavior is hilariously immature.

Included here are seven episodes: "Ferrett Come Home," "Getting on Sydney's Wire," "Jubilee," "Flower Power Cut," "Who Made a Bit of Splash in Wales Then?" "Green Fingers," and "The Bandit from Stoke-on-Trent." The year is 1977 and Compo, Clegg, ...
