Rating: 3.5/5 -- Though lackadaisical pacing steals a lot of the tension, especially in the shrug of a climax, Dead Kids is full of wondrous scene-by-scene oddities[...] Full Review

The title Dead Kids makes it sound like a slasher picture or a zombie film [but] it's really a mix of mad scientist thriller and revenge movie dropped into a somewhat surreal recreation of small-town Midwest America. Full Review

A psychodrama set in that strange limbo where bloody horror meets sci fi, it exposes age-old vindictiveness, undying jealousy & Freudian friction in a small-town slice of Americana that seems sleepy, but harbours evil grudges from beyond the grave. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

It is a quiet, peaceful town where nothing ever happens ... until a brutal serial killer begins a terrifying campaign targeting local teens. The killer's signature is the horrible mutilation of the victims.

As fear mounts, law enforcement officer John Brady is inexorably drawn to the high school's psychology department where he suspects he will find the killer. There is something sinister about the department's research program on behavioral control and Brady is determined to uncover it. His determination takes on a more desperate and personal nature when he finds his son has unwittingly become involved in the experiments.

Product Description:

A young girl is brutally attacked by a maniac and her date is slain as Galesburg College becomes the focus of a series of murders.
