IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114852/

Note : Generally acknowledged as the last Carpenter film that's worth watching (although I haven't seen The Ward), this remake follows the original film fairly beat for beat, but adds some touches of Carpenter grisliness and humor. It doesn't quite work for me, but it's well worth watching, not least for the excellent cast, which, apart from leading man Christopher Reeve in his last role before his defeat in his life-long conflict with the Equines, includes many great character actors and Carpenter regulars, such as Kirstie Alley, Linda Kozlowski, Michael Paré, Meredith Salenger, Mark Motherfuckin' Hamill, and George Buck Flower.

In the quiet Northern California town of Midwich, all inhabitants fall unconscious simultaneously at 10 in the morning, and regain consciousness at 4 in the afternoon. Afterwards, ten women are found to be mysteriously pregnant, including a virgin and a woman who hasn't had sex for more than a year. The babies are born on the same night, but one of them is stillborn. The surviving children are healthy, but all have strange, platinum blonde hair, pale skin, and blue eyes. As the children grow up at a highly accelerated pace, they form pairs, except for David, whose intended mate was stillborn, and start displaying psychic powers. As the town sees a rash of strange accidents and suicides, the locals suspect the children, and they're moved together to a barn for their protection, while a group of scientists investigate, but things soon come to a fatal head.

Like several other recent Carpenter remasters, this looks great, natural color, good contrast and detail, and tight, very subtle grain. 5.1 track also sounds good, and the commentary track is fine, despite not involving any of the original cast or crew.

Hot tip

Quote:

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “hevk sci-fi horror” for more scary science and scientific anomalies, “hevk alien” for more invaders from Mars, or “hevk 90s” for more from the decade when Carpenter went on a downwards trajectory, but still produced some films well worth watching.
