The Weird Kidz
6.9
“Campfires. Creatures. Puberty. Ritual Sacrifice. It's going to be a long NIGHT for... The Weird Kidz!”
Three 12-year-old boys, including the precocious Dug, excitedly tag along with Dug’s older brother and his new girlfriend for a night of fireside camping. Their good times are rudely interrupted, though, when a local monster legend known as the “Night Child” turns out to be all too real.
