Another Carpenter flick in the bag. Lewis and Nick plowed through "Village of the Damned" (1995), a striking film which makes a strong case against ever having children. This odd entry comes late in Carpenter's oeuvre, and has a few notably weird aspects: Christopher Reeve's final pre-accident appearance, a sizable flock of competent children actors, and Mark Hamill. This quirky flick is worth checking out, particularly given that it's a tight 98 minutes.
