The Bad Seed has its share of awkward moments, dated ideas and unintentional humor. But the overall impact is quite powerful and it certainly deserves its reputation as a disturbing thriller. People disagree on whether it can be properly classified as a horror movie, but I think the description fits pretty well.

Patty McCormack's star turn as the homicidal little girl is one of the creepiest portrayals I've ever seen.
