Featured review
It's the audience that suffers
This is an intolerably cheap and amateurishly edited together independent horror flick that for some reason enjoys a cult-status that it absolutely doesn't deserve. I once saw a VHS copy of this movie being sold on eBay for more than £500.00! Damn, I pity the person who spent such a massive amount of money on this utterly worthless piece of junk! "Suffer, Little Children" is so bad that I can hardly find enough synonyms for awful to describe what's going on here. It's practically unwatchable, with lousy editing, incomprehensible narration, inaudible dialogs (also because the acting performances are so inept) and no sign of coherence or pace whatsoever. The story plays at a children's home where the caretakers suddenly and unannounced have to take custody of a nine-year-old mute girl with a macabre persona. The girl has the ability to inflict nightmarish imagery onto others and hypnotizes the rest of the kids. She subsequently enjoys forcing them to mutilate and even kill themselves in gruesome ways. Personally, I'm a huge sucker for (evil) kids in horror movies! Some of my favorite genre films revolve on murderous children, like "Who Can Kill A Child" and "The Omen" for example, but this one is hopeless and even infuriating. The premise shows such enormous potential, yet the elaboration is a total mess. There wasn't any money for make-up effects, so don't go around expecting gory killings or creepy kids' faces. Along with a handful of other amateur films that were made around the same era, like "Goremet – Zombie Chef from Hell" and "Mad Mutilator", "Suffer Little Children" is one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. Do NOT watch it, please!
