Three kids vanish for three days and return... wrong. Very, very wrong.
They Returned is a beautifully touching and unnerving story about the unexplained disappearance of three children, two boys and one girl, and their reappearance three days later in a semi-autistic state. Not even the children themselves are able to help anyone understand what happened.

The child actors deliver genuinely disturbing vacant performances.
