Removal of "needs infobox" tag
This article has had its infobox tag removed by a cleanup using AWB. Any concerns please leave me a message at my talk page. RWardy 19:28, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Additional Soundtrack Note ...
i saw this film recently, and the credit went by too fast , so maybe someone else can fill this in , but , Billy Mumy was credited with the song the boys sing while driving the jeep. It had a title something like, "It's Going To Be A Good Day" or "It's A Good Day". This definitely pre-dates his activities with "Barnes & Barnes", and is possibly his first released song. 75.104.163.77 (talk) 19:28, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

Plot summary
The plot summary is awful. It needs to be rewritten. As is, it tells me almost nothing about the plot but meanders on in some pseudo-intellectual film and psychological analysis as if the person who entered it wants to show how smart he is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.12.52.249 (talk) 23:25, 17 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Agreed. The plot "summary" does not summarise the plot. It needs to have the psychobabble removed and the actual events added. Laodah 04:12, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Hi, y'all. I just watched this on Amazaon Prime, and I don't think there's anything about Lally 2's "Ooms" in the movie. Is this perhaps a reference to the book instead...? The tamale (talk) 02:56, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Adding to the chorus: the plot "summary" needs a machete taken to it. Nauseating. EEng 23:27, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Followup: Restored an earlier version that's too short but doesn't make you want to vomit. EEng 23:34, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

I last saw this movie over 40 years ago, but happened to be thinking of it and wanted to refresh my memory. There seem to be very few detailed plot summaries online. I don’t have time to edit the article right now, but here’s the best plot summary I’ve found. Much of it matches the previous version of this page. (I’m not sure which way the copying went, given the number of sites that copy Wikipedia content, but I didn’t see this content anywhere else.) This content could be referenced and used to write a new (simpler, less “psychological”) summary in this article. https://alchetron.com/Bless-the-Beasts-and-Children-(film) Edalton (talk) 08:32, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
