Check out Halloween III: Season of the Witch.

The plot is based around the mass murder of children.

It's 80's cheese so it's not as dark and disturbing.

Recently watched Ghost Shark, and was surprised by the child death in that. It was a cheesy flick though, so I don't know how seriously you'd take it. I also couldn't help but laugh when the little separated lower bodies kept running when the torsos got ate.

my personal favorite is the boy on the bicycle in Toxic Avenger.

Who the hell lets a child of that age ride a bike alone at night in Tromaville? Common sense wasn't very common that night.

In A Glass Cage, the death of the child is horrific.

But showing the death of a child should be used rarely if you ask me. It can also be quite impressive if you just can imagine what happened to the kid. Our imagination can be scarier than a film could ever be.
It's why the chainsaw death in Scarface and the ear cutting scene in Reservoir Dogs standout; nothing was ever shown but people always describe those scenes as horrifying to watch and brutal

Don't see it mentioned but in Dawn of the Dead 2 kids are killed. Ok, Zombie kids, but still kids. Struck me when I saw it how unusual it is for kids to be killed in movies...unless they're teenagers of course, I mean, killing them is a staple of the horror genre!
