Freaks: sci-fi thriller starring a young girl
Freaks is a terrific sci-fi film with a 7 year old girl in the starring role. I always enjoy the sci-fi genre and having a girl at the center of events is a treat. Freaks is exciting, surprising, and filled with great visual effects. You can see it on Prime Video.
