Peopletoys (also known as Devil Times Five and The Horrible House on the Hill, as well as Tantrums in the United Kingdom) is a 1974 American horror film directed by Sean MacGregor and David Sheldon (uncredited), and starring Sorrell Booke, Gene Evans, Shelley Morrison and Leif Garrett. The film follows a group of sociopathic, homicidal children who survive a car accident in the mountains, and seek refuge in a rural village where a group of vacationers are staying.

Plot

Five children crawl from the wreckage of a deadly van accident in a snowy canyon. The juvenile survivors seek shelter at a secluded mountaintop winter home occupied by a rich businessman (Evans) and his friends (Booke and Morrison). Soon, strange mishaps occur and the group is stranded without electricity and telephones. One by one, the adults begin to fall prey to a series of shocking and violent deaths. By the time the few surviving adults suspect the demented delinquents, it may be too late.
