Join us for Wednesday Night Movies at the Library! As a follow up to March’s “Bad Boys” series and April’s “Dangerous Women”, this month we are showing five films featuring terrible children! This line-up has been carefully selected by Mary Alice Wells and Deb Karacozian, Library staff members and film aficionados. The films start at 5:30 pm and will be shown in the following order:
June 1: Bad Seed (1956; 2 hours, 9 minutes): Rhoda Penmark seems like your average, sweet eight-year-old girl. When her rival at school dies in mysterious circumstances at the school picnic her mother starts to suspect that Rhoda was responsible.

June 15: The Omen (1976; 1 hour, 51 minutes): Mysterious deaths surround an American ambassador. Could the child that he is raising actually be the Antichrist? The Devil's own son?
