I guess if Cronenberg ever has another acrimonious divorce they still might!:)

I'm pretty lenient on the definition of a "bad seed" movie. I think most people felt this thread was about creepy killer kids (the origin of their homicidal or sociopathic tendencies irrelevant), and The Brood certainly had that.
Don't Look Now and West Side Story, on the other hand, didn't have any creepy killer kids (the characters in West Side Story were hardly "children")
@Bookzombie - Carrie, like West Side Story, is really pushing the "evil children" criteria.
