Beware! Children at Play - Unbearably stupid movie with the best ending in cinema history.

[Aurora]

Beware! Children at Play is an utterly bizarre and stupidly funny film nearly forgotten by time. The dialogue is terrible, cinematography terrible, writing, acting, everything is awful.

Except for the very end.

The plot is convoluted. A Goosebumps clone writer and his family go to a small rural town and investigate children disappearing, only for them to return as cannibals. I recommend this film solely for its ending, as even the most straight faced motherfucker on the planet could not help but burst into obscene laughter or, like the audience at its first showing did, walk away in utter disgust.

Beware! Children at Play - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The Wikipedia has all the basic information on the cast, b not its budget. I've been unable to find it, but odds are it is very low.
The R-Rated version does not have the memeworthy footage from the ending. Unrated all the way, baby.

The first time I saw that clip without context I thought it was literally a backyard film directed by children.

It's seriously bad.

I remember seeing the ending back when YouTube had a star rating instead of like/dislike.

It's their movie (or they have the forever film rights or whatever like cannibal the musical). you can get a bluray too.

That ending though, you'd figure the other adults would have realized the writer was one of them and spared him. But nope! He has to die with the kids.

it also amazes me how these newly-made canibal kids don't even try to bite into an arm or leg of one of the adults.

All the children are massacred by the adults
