Join us for an in depth discussion and analysis of the 1984 Stephen King adaptation of the 1977 publication, Children of the Corn.
Directed by Fritz Kirsch.
Starring: John Franklin, Linda Hamilton, Peter Horton,  and Courtney Gains.

The first installment for our month of Stephen King film adaptations was a short story first published in Penthouse magazine and later in the compilation Novel, Night Shift. 

*Spoiler Alert* -  Full synopsis and behind the scenes morcels included.

Scare-o-meter Ratings:
Tasha - 2 skulls
Julia - 3 skulls

Consensus: An entertaining classic 80's film full of nostalgia and lot's of corn...
Like many of Stephen King's adaptations the screenplay deviates from the original story moderately, however it is still encapsulates King's world and the shadows that lurk within it.
Worth the watch for fans of Stephen king, creepy kids, and crazy cults.
