I have to be honest here. I barely got through this pile of junk and I was thrilled when it was over. I am by no means a fan of movies where children are the killer. There are probably exceptions to that rule, but for the most part, I just dislike them. Not because I think they'r... read more

Three 10 year-old kids all born on the same day during a solar eclipse go on a killing-spree around their neighbourhood. Dosen't quite live up to the title as the kills are pretty tame, though the fact they're being carried out by children adds a disturbing quality to them. And t... read more

In the early 80's there was a plateau of endless slasher films. Some were forgotten such as this one. Bloody Birthday is an obscured title that every Slasher film fan should check out. Three kids born on the same night during a Lunar Eclipse have homicidal tendencies on their ten... read more

First of all, the plot doesn't make much sense, I mean just because they share a birthday they don't have any emotions? That's silly. Other than that, it's a suspenseful and somewhat shocking horror movie, and it's entertaining.

There is very little shock value now to this film as the idea of 10 year olds running amok and killing people for fun has pretty much become a reality in today's society. It was quite novel back in 1981 though. How times change!
There isn't a lot of gore in this but the death sce... read more -

For the most part this movie was pretty cool, especially the three child actors, who happen to be the killers (don't worry, that's not a spoiler.). Of course, the premise of the story is crazy: the three kids were all born on the same day, which happens to be a day when Saturn w... read more

B movie values and flavor, but it held my interest. Three children without consciences do...things. If you're a fan of B movies and violence you may like this. I'd watch it again. Julie Brown gets to show her stuff, too. There's an interview with producer Max Rosenblum inclu... read more

Dammit,rented this from Netflix and it turns out I already saw it a few years ago. Wasn't any better this time around-just wanted to see those murderin' little punk-ass 10 year olds get tossed in jail for a hundred years or so!
