31 Days Of Horror: Day 21

The Children of the Corn is based on a short story by horror author Stephen King. The original movie is considered a cult classic, but many do not consider it a just interpretation of the story that was written. The very man that stylized the original movie chose to remake it in the same way as the story this time. Stephen King refused to read the screenplay of the remake based on how Hollywood, in a way, corrupted the original movie.

The town of Gatlin, Nebraska has been a ghost-like town in many ways, except for the children. These God-fearing children using only the Old Testament books of the bible, killed the adults of the town as sacrifice to the Lord. The story is one of great mystery and vicious horror. I suggest seeing this if you haven't already done so.
