"Last night at 2:17 AM, every child from Mrs. Gandy's class woke up, got out of bed, went downstairs, opened the front door, walked into the dark ...and they never came back."

Boxlist takeExpect an otherworldly, serious horror film, dark rather than wholesome. Best if you like depth over escapism.
