The Midwich Cuckoos
In the sleepy English village of Midwich, a mysterious blackout causes everyone to lose consciousness. When they awaken, all women of childbearing age discover they're pregnant, and the children born from these pregnancies age rapidly and develop strange, golden eyes with telepathic abilities. As the children grow, their collective power increases, and the villagers find themselves increasingly under their control.
Critical Reception:
- The Guardian: "A stylish and unsettling update of Wyndham's classic"
- Radio Times: "Keeley Hawes delivers a standout performance"
- Empire Magazine: "Maintains the eerie atmosphere of the original while adding modern twists"
