Why us? Because we can keep a secret!

Warning: Spoilers
What's wrong with the kids other than the fact that they've accepted the gift from the evil Colm Feore which seems to have put them under some sort of spell. This comes after all the adult members of Virginia have had nightmares that they deliberately all committed suicide by jumping into the freezing waters. Waking up and realizing what they have witnessed, the adults all become gripped with paranoia, not aided by the eerie twist involving the children of the town and an evil looking cane which is obviously a tool of a very horrific evil.

The final part of this Stephen King original story is even more gripping as all the pieces of this ugly puzzle begin to fit together. It involves some early American history, and no amount of prayer seems to be able to stop the pending disaster of biblical proportions which opens up the explanation of a motive for everything that has occurred since the scary opening involving the cruel murder of a sweet looking old lady in part one. The tea pot song continues as a major plot device, and more sudden shocks pop up that just indicates possibly even more grizzly deaths for the characters whom Feore describes with sinister terms and a stunning twist of power changes. "Born in lust turn to dust", Feore reminds the survivors who begin to panic as if they haven't gone to hell, just having hell brought to where they are.

Overrated

Another highly overrated Stephen king mini series. Very long and drags out the plot for 4.5 hours. Just give the devil your sacrifice and be done with it.
