It's supposed to be based on John Wyndham's brilliant novel and 1960 film The Village of The Damned, you know the one where the children are all white with platinum blonde hair.
Here's an idea, and it is 2022 after all, so let's fuck it all up and woke the fuck out of it... utterly!
Job done.

What's your point exactly?
shareThe OP’s point is that it should be following the book, not going by today’s “trends”. The children look scarier with silver hair as it makes them looks distinctive compared to the rest of the neighbourhood, and they’re supposed to be aliens from another planet.
shareOh I see. I can't believe I didn't get that! 🤦🏻♀️
To be honest, I think having them look like normal vulnerable and innocent children made them more sinister simply because it's not obvious at face value about who and what they are, etc.
Disagree. It makes them look ridiculous because there is clearly a political agenda behind the casting choice. What made the original children so eerie was that they were uniform in every way while being part of a "hive mind".
