Children of the Corn Blu-ray Review (Arrow)
Though failing to conjure up many thrills and scares, Children of the Corn remains an entertaining excursion into 1980’s horror happenings. The darkness that King seems to frequently see in the simple, innocent, and quiet life of small towns is in full parade here, though at the hands of children murderously run amuck. The touch of King is diluted by a less than thrilling screenplay and average-at-best direction, but even still – there is something for horror fans to dig into with Children of the Corn – even with the dodgy special effects on display in the finale.
