Children of the Stones 1977

     This is a min-series originally shown in England.  The story takes place in a British village called Milbury.  This village is the home of a Stonehenge type megalithic stone circle.  Matthew Brake bought a painting depicting the stone circle and he follows his father Adam Brake to the village for scientific experiments.  Adam is an astrophysicist and he has brought his equipment to test the properties of the stones.

     Maybe one of the most ridiculous films I’ve ever seen!!!  The creepy music and singing are enough to make you want to stop watching immediately!!  It's also possible this will either curl or straighten your hair as you watch??  Unfortunately, you become fascinated by the hairstyles of 1977 and the mannerisms of the people.  3* (This movie is OK)
