Critic Reviews of "The Bad Seed"
VarietyOctober 23, 2008This melodrama about a child with an inbred talent for homicide is pretty unpleasant stuff on its own.
New York TimesMarch 25, 2006Mervyn LeRoy, who produced and directed, has lost a great deal of the bite of the play.
Time OutJanuary 26, 20061956 was way too soon for an unfettered treatment of the central premise.
Chicago ReaderJanuary 01, 2000Overlong, stiff, and about as suspenseful as a detergent commercial.
Film ThreatOctober 31, 2011The 'secret' villain is the missing father - or we should say, the mother for trying to child-rear by herself ... The bad seed is dead - but single parents, be warned.
Groucho ReviewsOctober 14, 2011The dark drama that launched a genre of evil-kid movies. [Blu-ray]
