When you think of VHS, this one definitely comes to mind (for those of us who still think of VHS, that is). Alternate titles for Children Shouldn’t Play With Dead Things were Zreaks, Things from the Dead, Things from the Grave, and Revenge of the Living Dead. In Germany it was called Cemetery of the Dead, in Finland, Älä leiki kuolleilla, in Portugal, As Crianças Não Devem Brincar Com Coisas Mortas. Some trivia for you courtesy of IMDb: the names on the tombstones in the film are those of the crew members; they were made out of styrofoam (the tombstones, not the crew members). The film’s script was written in ten days (yes, I believe that).
The 1990 guidebook “Uranian Worlds: A Guide to Alternative Sexuality in Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror” by Eric Garber and Lyn Paleo lists this film as one of the first horror films to show positive (though stereotypical) gay male characters who also have an important role in its story.
