When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I saw this low-budget regional horror flick for the first time in September 2010.The plot of "The Wednesday Children" centers around eleven year old blonde boy Scott Miller(Tom Kelly).The boy feels alienated and unloved because his parents are uncaring.His father is more interested in his job and his collection of plane models;his hysterical mother enjoys her wig too much.It's up to eccentric Mister Fenton(Al Miskell)to save Scott and the group of local children from their self-absorbed parents.The film was shot in Wadsworth,Ohio and directed by Robert D.West,who was local Wadsworth preacher.It plays like Christian version of "Children of the Corn",so it obviously lacks nudity,gore and profanity.Still it's a charming and very pleasant horror drama.6 disappearing parents out of 10.
