Synopsis:

A documentary that explores the urban legend surrounding the disappearance of five Staten Island children and the escaped mental institution inmate who many believe took them.

• Poster: B

Review:

It's a creepy looking house, but it isn't necessarily a great image to sell the film by.

• Trailer: A-

Review:

The mixture of the horror/suspense genre with documentary filmmaking is utterly fascinating to me especially when, unlike The Blair Witch Project and its encouraged lookalikes, it is based on a real life situation.

Oscar Prospects:

It would be wonderful if this were an Oscar contender, but I doubt it.

Release Date:

• June 4, 2010
