Commentaire à la une

This movie was bloody scary!!

After going through the Stephen King's movies, like Pet Sematary, Christine, Salem's Lot, Carrie, It, The Grave Yard Shift, Thinner, The Shining, Needful Things,Fire Starter, all that stuff! Now, I found Children of the Corn!

This movie had some sick parts, like with the kids sliced up body was found dumped in the road! YUK!!!

Isaac ( John Franklin) was SO creepy how the way he stared! I feel so sorry for the kids in this movie because, they are being controlled by some possessed kid!

I own this movie on video, at home because, I love scary movies, especially Stephen King's films!

Give this gory film 8/10

Anecdotes
On the dashboard of Burt and Vicki's car is a copy of "Night Shift," the Stephen King short story collection in which "Children of the Corn" originally appeared.

Gaffes
In the beginning of the film, the children kill the adults. This is followed by the opening credits. When the credits end, we are introduced to Burt and Vicki at their motel and told it's three years later. When Burt and Vicki arrive in Gatlin and encounter the children, none of them seem to have aged four years.

Citations
Burt: Any religion without love and compassion is false! It's a lie!

Versions alternatives
The director's initial cut was much longer than the version that eventually made it to theaters and video. Among the missing footage:
A longer prologue where several other adults are killed on-camera, most noticeably a police deputy at the local police station whose throat is slashed and then stabbed in the chest, and a farmer who is hacked to death outside his barn by a group of pick-ax wielding teen kids.
A scene between Sarah and Job's parents before the slaughter. They talk over the breakfast table about Sarah's drawings of the upcoming massacre and how they think something awful is about to happen.
A scene where Isaac prays to He Who Walks Behind The Rows only to receive a horrific vision of his impending fate.
