This story is about letting go and moving on from grief rather than a horror movie. It's really just in the wrong genre. As a horror movie this is 1/10 as a drama it's a 7/10.
Spoilers- stop reading now if you don't want to know. English women wants to know what happened to her son, goes to country town. Houses have red lights to keep the ghost children away that live in the field but can go to the houses and even speak.
It's discovered that Lenny is a serial killer and killed the British women's son. Lenny also tried to kill Max who caught him leaving the field with a shovel. Max rides his bike to get away and causes the accident with the bus, leading to the crash and death of the children on the bus and Max. They are all ghosts unable to move on like the British woman's son.
The serial killer is drowning someone in the river (we would assume max is being drowned by the serial killer) and Tom (the bus driver) is shouting no but the serial killer ignores him. This murder is covered up as the papers said Max was on the bus and drowned from the accident.
The town people seem to all know about the children in the field and want the field to stay so they can visit the children. They want the British women to leave so she doesn't uncover their secret.
Lenny the serial killer is John's son.

Lipton who dies after telling the bar owner he plans to harvest the haunted field is driving home when he thinks he hits someone who looks like a child in the road, he gets out of his car to inspect and then found dead next day. Implying the guy is murdered by a ghost child. It is implied John is also killed by Max (child of the field)
score 3/10
