Suffer the Little Children
4 September 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The film uses the "Butterbox Babies" as a historical background from the Ideal Maternity Home in East Chester, Nova Scotia. It charged women to have babies there and then placed the babies up for sale. The ones that were not adoptable slowly starved to death. In this film, the place is now a bed and breakfast.

Liam (Allan Hawco) and his wife Rae (Suzanne Clément) go there to celebrate her birthday, late in the season. Rae is a journalist who suffers from PTSD and has connected to the house which triggers images. Things do not seem right as she insists on investigating. Liam is an unsuccessful jingo writer and lives in his wife's shadow.

And then the ending happened which was too much too soon. Not as bad a space aliens in Indian Jones.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
