In my formative years, I remember being decidedly spooked by a black & white British movie, Village of the Damned. Remade some years ago featuring Christopher Reeve in his last role before his accident, the story is of a remote village where overnight, all the women become mysteriously pregnant. I don't think it was ever stated exactly how that happened - some kind of alien intervention I guess, but nine months later, a crop of blonde haired, blue-eyed psychopath mutants were born. Very spooky stuff.

All of which means I'm not going to be traveling to Canton, Ohio in the next 12 months, where, according to a news report, the local high school currently has 64 pregnant students. Sprogs from outer space.

Well, either that, or there's not much for kids to do in the evenings around there.
