Ten years after his 6 year-old son was kidnapped, a small town cop encounters a strange man in his jail late one night. His sinister fervor prompts the cop to check out his file and vehicle, both showing suspicious signs of possible vehemence. Sure enough, the man is responsible for the disappearances of man neighborhood children over the ten year span. The cop holds the alleged sadist in the interrogation room while calling on another cop to check out the perp's house. All doesn't go well and a swarm of 14 captive man-children are set loose on the town and their extensive confinement has triggered some very animal-like, savage behavior...
There's a fair amount of gore on hand, here. An interesting plot twist early on and all of the characters are unlikable enough to be suitably provocative. In essence, "Perkins' 14" is, fundamentally, a zombie movie seeing as how the mindless abducted partake in cannibalism throughout.
In all, the film is dark and captivating enough to warrant a recommendation. You rarely find much better when it comes to the whole "8 Films" gimmick...
