Ok, a challenge...
 
How many horror films can you name where the 'evil' character is a little girl? (Either she is the source of evil, or the evil is 'channelled' through her)

I'll start:-

The Exorcist
Silent Hill
Orphan

Let's see how many we can think of - extra credit for recent film and films based on psychological horror rather than gore.

Hmm... and to think I actually thought posting a question about horror films on a forum frequented by horror fans I might get an intelligent and helpful response - but alas, although it brings a sense of stability to my universe, it's obvious idiots are everywhere.

Okay but honestly, is this for homework, or blog research? Perhaps you are making a facebook quiz or something? It doesn't seem like you are legitimately trying to challenge us, because we are, in fact, not idiots. We are a horror community, and thus, know a lot more about horror than the average person, so when posed with such a simple question, we're not being challenged at all.

If you need help with something, just ask for help, let us know why you're looking for info. We'll likely help you. Afterward, update us when you are done with your current project, and we will take a look. Simple as that. Insults, however, get you no where.

Well, ok, maybe saying it's a 'challenge' in the thread title was the wrong approach - I was merely asking for titles of horror films with the stated scenerio so that I could go watch them, 'casue they're the type I like the most and wanted recommendations - I guess I should have phrased it differently, sorry 'bout that.

I was refering to the person I quoted, posting a link to a picture of dogshit as a response doesn't strike me as helpful or intelligent.

It was a joke. People like to make sure you can take a joke, before we take you seriously. Go on now.. laugh it off. :p

Anywho, can this suggestion list be a little broader? Maybe some films with supernatural themes, and creepy children, but not so menacing? Or boys and not just girls? I'll just list as many as I can think of and a little descriptor.

The Orphanage (ghost of little boy)
The Devil's Backbone (same deal, same director)
The Changeling (amazing movie, ghost of boy, such a classic. I suggest you see this one.)
The Omen (again, evil boy is not a girl)
The Good Son (Macaulay Culkin is mad)
The Brood (another classic)
Children of the Corn (I'm getting to lazy to describe these)
Village/Children of the Damned
The Bad Seed
Ringu/The Ring
