Synopsis by Sandra Brennan

This horror movie contains an allegorical message about society as it follows a group of abused children who take their problems to a kindly farmhand. Unbeknownst to the battered innocents, he is in league with Satan. He ends up making a devil's bargain with them: in exchange for their allegiance, he will grant them the power to cast a spell to obliterate those who harm them. As they do so, the children become more and more like the abusers they despise.
