I remember the marketing for Children Of The Corn when I was a kid. The commercials were absolutely terrifying, and at 11 all I knew about Stephen King was that he was “The Master of Horror”. I don’t think I started reading his work yet, but when I did I was hooked and had my chance to see this when it arrived on cable a few years later. Back then the story of child cults and murder were so fresh and creepy it made an indelible impression on my young mind. Rewatching it now, I can see many of the seams and problems (man this is a dull movie) but I’d be lying if I said it was a complete failure.
