Frank Carveth is afraid, afraid of his ex-wife’s sanity, fearful for the effects of her influence on their six-year-old daughter, and ultimately, fearful for his own life. His daughter’s teacher Ruth is attacked by two misshapen children in her kindergarden class, leading Carveth to unravel the connections between a series of murders, his relationship with his ex-wife, a radical psychotherapy cult, and the mysterious Dr. Raskin. As the menace of the terrifying, dangerous child-like creatures come closer to home, Carveth must uncover their true nature before both he and his daughter become their victims. The final confrontation in Raskin’s Institute is guaranteed to raise audiences off their seats – and bring them into the theatres in major numbers.
