Decades of Horror 1970s is partnering with the WICKED HORROR TV CHANNEL (https://wickedhorrortv.com/) which now includes video episodes of the podcast and is available on Roku, AppleTV, Amazon FireTV, AndroidTV, and its online website across all OTT platforms, as well as mobile, tablet, and desktop.

A couple of English tourists arrive on an island where all the children have gone crazy and are murdering the adults.

 

Who Can Kill a Child? (1976), is a politically incorrect title for a Spanish horror film on a difficult subject directed by Narciso Ibáñez Serrador. The film tells the story of a married couple expecting a baby who travels to a remote island off the coast of Spain for a vacation and finds it almost completely devoid of adults. WTF? WTF, indeed! The direction and cinematography are brilliant and the acting doesn’t miss a beat. The 70s Grue Crew, joined this episode by Daphne Monary-Ernsdorff (yay!), are simultaneously disturbed and impressed by this cult classic and think it deserves a wider audience… if you can take it!

TRIGGER WARNING: The movie begins with ten minutes of newsreel footage depicting the heartbreaking damage done to children by the actions of adults in wars. Many viewers will understandably want to skip this section.

At the time of this writing, Who Can Kill a Child? (1976) is available to stream from various YouTube links and is available from Mondo Macabro as a standard format Blu-ray disc.

Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1970s is part of the Decades of Horror two-week rotation with The Classic Era and the 1980s. In two weeks, the next episode, chosen by Chad, will be Snowbeast (1977), a TV movie written by Joseph Stefano (Outer Limits, 1963-1965) and starring Bo Svenson, Yvette Mimieux, Robert Logan, Clint Walker, and Sylvia Sidney. It’s time for a good creature feature/big foot flick, but is this the one? Time will tell.
