Tom Shankland's killer-kids-on-the-loose thriller "The Children" is hitting DVD in the UK March 30. While one would think this might dash hopes of a theatrical release in the U.S., "All the Boys Love Mandy Lane" has been out on DVD in Europe for quite some time and is still getting a U.S. theatrical release.

During a relaxing Christmas vacation, parents have to fight for survival as the children begin to turn on them. Ugh, don't you hate it when that happens? . . .
