Bloody Birthday (1981)

Three children born on the same day during a solar eclipse begin committing murders on their tenth birthdays.

A classic slasher that's a little different to the norm, the kids seem homely and adorable but in their hearts it's pure evil as they go on a killing spree featuring all manner of shootings, stabbings, stranglings, beatings and other cruelties. Better acted than usual with final girl Lori Lethin very good as are the three child actors who go about the slayings. You can't take your eyes off them - I couldn't wait to see if they got their comeuppance.

All in all Bloody Birthday is an off-beat slasher film and a hugely entertaining one at that.
