Village of the Damned

John Carpenter

1995

A truly riveting tale of creepy, blonde children with telekinetic powers and an inexplicable obsession with staring menacingly at people. The realistic and nuanced portrayals of small town life and family dynamics were simply breathtaking, and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time wondering when those darn kids were going to start levitating things again.

Guess the perspective of the following positive and negative comments provided by AI.

Answer at bottom!

+ I really loved "Village of the Damned," it was super eerie and had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, especially with those creepy blonde kids and their mind control powers.

- Honestly, "Village of the Damned" was just plain weird and creepy, like, those kids gave me the heebie-jeebies and the whole thing was just unsettling.

Now some haikus and midjourney art…

Children are creepy

Why no parental control

Your mortality

Everybody sleeps

Alien impregnation

Government watching

Ominous eyeglows

I don’t control my body

Some kids are petty

One missing his pair

The rest missing emotion

A big revenge boom

Birthed in unison

Ones we do not understand

Savage superman

I see matricide

Questionable parenting

Just let go I guess

Nine Points of View

The Optimist

The story of a caring and understanding town that puts up with psychotic alien children for a disturbing amount of time.

The Mystic

Children are a remembrance of our mortality.

The Hyperbolist

Greatest glowing eye effects ever!

The Dualist

Bad movie, did this really come out in theaters? Lighting is super flat.

The Trickster

I’m with the Buck Flowers on this one.

The Skeptic

Why? Why are parents and the town so open to their clearly demonic alien kids?

The Rationalist

The government took a fairly relaxed approach to this town.

The Empath

Poor Kirstie Alley’s lungs had to be struggling after this movie. Stage direction: smoke cigarettes like a human chimney.

The Overthinker

1995, the Cold War was “over” so less focus on paranoia around others and more paranoia around what little shits spoiled children can be.

Estimated Budget - $22,000,000
