Overview

"Ever since he could hold a crayon, Robbie has drawn the people around him in a peculiar way - they appear more as misshapen, macabre supernatural creatures rather than human. Although unsettled, Robbie's father David dismisses everything as Robbie's childish imagination. These drawings are no real sources of concern, that is, until Robbie's grade school class has a new homeroom teacher, Mr. Percy. Robbie starts making drawings of a man with children's heads growing out of his back. Shortly after, children in the town begin to go missing. The town is whipped into a frenzy, trying their best to find the kidnapper without result. At the same time, Robbie's drawings of the mysterious man become concerning: the number of children's faces on his back increases as more children disappear. Then, Robbie goes missing. David finds himself in a race against time to find his son before it's too late." -- Abstract
