Cry Baby Lane is a made-for-television horror movie that was shown once on
Nickelodeon. Only once. It's claimed that there were too many
parental complaints regarding its
creepy and disturbing content, leading to its one night only fate (and Nickelodeon's own
denial of the film's existence). Because it was only shown once in 2000 and never released on DVD/VHS, it was assumed that there were no copies of it floating around.
That was until August 2011, when somebody asked about it on
Reddit and a user by the name of "firesaladpeach" claimed to have recorded it on VHS. The
Redditors got it up and streaming on
YouTube, confirming that yes,
Cry Baby Lane existed. It was soon taken off of
YouTube, but has been put back up by multiple people to ensure it doesn't become a
lost film.
The plot revolves around a legend of a pair of conjoined twins that were separated at death. One of the twins was good, and
the other was evil. The good twin was said to have been buried in the town cemetery, and the evil twin was buried in a grave near the farmhouse where he was born. Two brothers decide to
hold a seance on the good twin's grave, but it turns out that the good twin was actually buried at the farmhouse and they've awakened the spirit of the evil twin. The evil twin then goes around possessing everyone, including the older of the two brothers. It's up to the younger brother to set things right again.
After more than a decade, Nickelodeon sister channel
TeenNick finally re-aired the film for the second time ever on its
The '90s Are All That block on October 31, 2011.
