Two sisters and their families gather for a holiday celebration. One of the children seems a little under the weather and kind of creepy. Soon the other children seem to have caught the virus and their knowing glances soon lead to a killing spree.The adults seem clueless and make stupid decisions even when they see their children doing disturbing things, like playing with the corpse of their dead father in the tent. Seriously, normal kids are not going to drag a dead body into a tent and stick their hands in it.
Also when cornered, I can understand a parent being reluctant or even refusing to hurt their own child. But have a modicum of self preservation and at least try to protect yourself. Don't just sit there.
It was a mistake to not explain why one sisters husband took off in the jeep without her. The explanation was in a scene that was one of the special features. Without this interchange, there is a huge hole in the script and makes no sense. Also there is talk about having around sixty children as extras and scenes of them getting spooky makeup. Huh? There aren't a bunch of kids or any spooky makeup in the film. Again, big mistake to leave this out as it shows that it is something much bigger than just an isolated virus.
