Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Seriously, why was this movie even made?For one, this movie is just completely horrible and not in a good way. Like you know you have your "Movies that are so bad it's good," Well this is a "Movie that's so bad, it makes you angry." For one, the kids in the movie, make you question how the heck did they take over the town? Were all the citizens there just weak people or elderly people. There was also just only one police officer, just one! I mean, these kids couldn't take over a block let alone a whole town. The only one that looks slightly bit intimidating is Malachi, and he doesn't even have a personality. More to add, what kind of a film is this supposed to be? For one, with Burt having PTSD and reminiscing a Vietnam War setting, you forget it's Children of the Corn, but at the same time how can I blame you? The constant arguing between Vicki and Burt just make your head explode almost since it goes on for pretty much the entire first half of the movie. The worst part of the movie, Isaac. The thing about this Isaac is that the kid is just hilariously annoying and just makes you want to tear your ears off when he talks. The thing about John Franklin's Isaac is that he's actually good at the acting and is making a case for being scary. This Isaac, although he's trying hard, he just annoys you.Not to mention, this is what the 8th movie if you add the movies all up. Why?Again this movie is just bad and like I said earlier, take you this movie and destroy it. Do it now or your punishment shall be 1000 times, 1000 deaths, each one more horrible than the last! No not really, just I would highly recommenced you DO NOT check this movie out.2/10, I give it 2 stars, it would be one star, but it's one of the only SyFy films that doesn't have horrible CGI.

The 1984 remake of Children of the Corn is a great movie. This is awful. This the second remake of Children of the corn. The first was a 1983 short film called Disciples of crow. It was ok. This has an awful story line. It also has awful acting. It also an awful ending. It is not scary. Do not bother with it.

I was dozing when this came on and Kandyse McClure's screaming and nagging got me off the couch and moving around like I should have been. I swear I wanted to punch her in the face until my arms got too tired to lift. It's hard to see how her 'psycho' war vet boyfriend didn't snap and tear her head off her body. He's all cool and calm and she's gone full shrieking harpy for what must have been 10 or 12 minutes until he slapped her once which shut her up for maybe 45 seconds.This is the kind of movie that makes you wish an asteroid came down in the cornfield and wipes out most of the state and everyone in it. Who knows maybe in the 5th remake it will and aliens will pop out and join forces with the Amish Devil-Children or whatever they are. Nothing that anyone does makes the least sense. Ever. Whatever a rational self-preserving non retarded person would do, these characters do the opposite. So you're sort of rooting for the Devil-Farmers pretty soon. You're hoping there's a treasure trove of rusty farm tools with which they can use to slaughter the cast.

Basic plot: the very vivacious Vicky(Kandyse McClure)is sadly married to a dork "Marine" Burton (David Anders), he who acts like he barely passed Cub Scouts, travel to a small town in Nebraska and encounter biblical bigots hiding in the cornfields.I can't believe there aren't more movie with Kandyse in them. What happened? She is really cool...They find a body in the road and try and get him to "authorities". But bull headed Burton of course does everything his way despite the warnings to the contrary by Vicky.They get stuck in an abandoned town and in the worst case of oblivious ever on film, Vicky is tormented in her car, while Burton reads some old log books. Look up oblivious - it says see Burton in Children of the Corn. Oh, I forgot he is the only Marine totally oblivious of his surroundings. As I said...Cub Scout. He even fails to notice a bible thumper behind him with a sledge hammer while in an alley.So best line in the movie is when Burton finally comes out and says whoa! what are you doing to my babe. Little Issac (who should have been bitch slapped eons ago), says she is to be sacrificed. So this young, "tough" Marine says, "Just wait till I tell authorities". Could he be more of a weenie roaster?After 45 minutes of him on the run and thrashing about the cornfields, he finally finds Vicky.A message to Donald Borchers who wrote the movie...He who writes terrible scripts shall suffer condemnation and smitten by an inability to write and/or direct such movies...so saith the lord. And ye shall be banished among the bluemen. Amen.This movie is only worth viewing as long as Kandyse is on the screen, she is beautiful, has screen presence and can act, unlike everyone else in the movie. He who watches movies with beautiful girls shall watch many of them. Turn off the film as soon as she disappears after the car trashing scene. You are done with the movie.This could have been a great short. The couple is traveling down the road...he sees the body. They argue, he gets out of the car to enter the cornfield. She drives away leaving his ass behind. The End.
