Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Boring, long, and too preachy.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

On face value it would be easy to right this off as a pie of crap. And I wouldn't argue with those who think that. However it is essential to take on board that this was a very cheap shot on video movie using amateurs for a school project. Yes, the acting is bad. The music often drowns out the dialogue. The picture quality is poor at best. And the plot is just barmy (even Jesus gets in on the act!). But on the positive side the movie held my attention throughout, I wanted to know was going to happen next. Kind of a hypnotic effect. There's a fair smattering of gore, plus we get a few zombies thrown in for good measure. It's also a good glimpse of England back in 1983. A strange movie indeed, certainly not to your average horror fan's taste but for those who seek out strange films then it's worth a look.

This is an intolerably cheap and amateurishly edited together independent horror flick that for some reason enjoys a cult-status that it absolutely doesn't deserve. I once saw a VHS copy of this movie being sold on eBay for more than £500.00! Damn, I pity the person who spent such a massive amount of money on this utterly worthless piece of junk! "Suffer, Little Children" is so bad that I can hardly find enough synonyms for awful to describe what's going on here. It's practically unwatchable, with lousy editing, incomprehensible narration, inaudible dialogs (also because the acting performances are so inept) and no sign of coherence or pace whatsoever. The story plays at a children's home where the caretakers suddenly and unannounced have to take custody of a nine-year-old mute girl with a macabre persona. The girl has the ability to inflict nightmarish imagery onto others and hypnotizes the rest of the kids. She subsequently enjoys forcing them to mutilate and even kill themselves in gruesome ways. Personally, I'm a huge sucker for (evil) kids in horror movies! Some of my favorite genre films revolve on murderous children, like "Who Can Kill A Child" and "The Omen" for example, but this one is hopeless and even infuriating. The premise shows such enormous potential, yet the elaboration is a total mess. There wasn't any money for make-up effects, so don't go around expecting gory killings or creepy kids' faces. Along with a handful of other amateur films that were made around the same era, like "Goremet – Zombie Chef from Hell" and "Mad Mutilator", "Suffer Little Children" is one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life. Do NOT watch it, please!

A mute little girl named Elizabeth(Nicola Diana)comes to Sullivans Children's Home after being left by her mother.The girl seems weird and soon strange things begin to happen.She turns out to be an evil Satanic minion with telekinetic power who raises some hell at Children's Home.Her children of Satan begin to group behind her.It's time for Jesus Christ to show up and destroy the evil...Utterly cheesy and inept horror movie made by the students of Drama School.The editing is horrible,the plot makes no sense and the lighting is amateurish.The acting of children is gloriously wooden and the noisy climax is a laugh riot with Jesus saving the world from evil.If you like low-budget grade-Z trash give "Suffer,Little Children" a look.4 out of 10.

As a teenager back in 1983 who wasn't actually in Meg's drama school but found friendship with the cast. I had a wonderful time being buried and used as a zombie in the nightmare scene - check out the only Zombie wearing a pair of creepers and dodgy socks. The film is low budget, cheap effects, less than scary but was fun to be a part of. If you like B rate movies and enjoy the simplicity of that era it's worth a look (if you can find a copy of it). The location of 45 Kingston Road, New Malden was in fact a run down building being used as a squat. It was quite a scary building on it's own but not because of the cast and crew. The building is no longer there and the site was re-developed a few years later. Of all the cast and crew - Meg's Daughter one Ginny Rose had actually been on TV before so I was told, I think in an episode of Dr. Who if memory serves. But fame found it's way to another involved in the production. Neil Longley, now better known as Neil Long on the Tolworth based Radio Station "Radio Jackie"
