    Alice, Sweet Alice (a horror classic-highly recommended) and Bloody >Birthday (a guilty pleasure) come to mind.

    CELIA (cheesily and misleadingly subtitled "Child of Terror" on the U.S. release.)

    How about ISLAND OF THE DAMNED, a 1975 Spanish chiller (similar but much better than the later CHILDREN OF THE CORN) in which a couple arrive on
    an isolated island for a vacation and slowly discover that virtually the entire adult population has been killed off by the island's children.
    As I remember it, the pregnant wife dies at the end when the baby in her stomach turns against her. Weird.

    The Butcher Boy.
