Directed by Eli Craig, CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD introduces us to Quinn Maybrook (Katie Douglas) as she and her father move into the small town of Kettle Springs after the death of her mother. But Quinn quickly discovers that the kids in town aren’t alright, at least according to the adults. Blamed for everything that goes wrong, the youth don’t get any respect (so they don’t give any either). However, when Frendo, a clown-faced symbol of the town’s success, begins hunting teenagers, they must fight to survive the night and escape with their lives. In this 1on1, we speak to Craig about his appreciation for 80s slasher films and crossing the generational divide.
