In a small English town called Midwich everybody whois in, or enters, fall into a very deep and mysterious sleep.

On awakening all the women of child bearing age are found to be pregnant, whether or not they were intimate with anyone.

All the children are born at the same time and start to grow, very fast and surprisingly enough they all look alike with the same white blond hair and psychic abilities.

Their penetrating eyes make anyone do anything at a drop of a hat.. now they must be stopped!
