Children of the Damned (1964) Disconnected sequel to Village of the Damned, a more thoughtful contemporary political allegory. It loses much of the power and clarity of the original by adding moral ambiguity, and sympathy for the powerful mutant children. Strangely, it doesn't try to make any kind of connection with the story of the previous film. Though it suffers by comparison it is still fairly good on its own. 6/10
