Who Can Kill a Child? Limited Edition

£29.99

Released: 19th October 2026. Tom and Evelyn (Lewis Fiander and Prunella Ransome), a young couple from England, plan an idyllic getaway to a remote Spanish island, in anticipation of the birth of their third child.  When they arrive, they find their destination almost entirely deserted, with the exception of a number of children, all of whom are acting strangely.  When the couple begin to find evidence of a number of atrocities on the island, they quickly find themselves embroiled in a terrifying battle for survival, as well as being forced to confront a previously unthinkable question… Directed by Narciso Ibáñez Serrador (El televisor, The House That Screamed), the legendary master of horror dubbed the ‘Spanish Hitchcock’, Who Can Kill A Child? is his undisputed masterpiece, an extreme and unbearably tense work that remains deeply shocking in its disregard for societal taboos. With a cult reputation that has continued to grow among genre aficionados since its release in 1976, Who Can Kill A Child? is now considered not just as a landmark work of Euro-horror, but as one of the greatest horror films ever made (Slant Magazine).
