US cable network SyFy (formerly Sci-Fi Channel) is set to air a TV adaptation of Stephen King's horror Children of the Corn, although no date has been announced yet, reports TBI. Corn, which is produced by Fox TV Studios and Starz-owned Anchor Bay Entertainment will air in September and will star Heroes' David Anders, Dexter's Preston Bailey and Battlestar Galactica's Kandyse McClure. It will be directed by Donald P Borcher, who was a producer on the original feature film. Former Vietnam vet Burt's marriage to Vicky is on the rocks, but Burt hopes to rekindle their old flame with a second honeymoon driving trip. Unfortunately, their journey takes them into the heart of darkness -- a seemingly deserted rural community that conceals a grim secret among its rows of tall corn...

Hopefully this will be good, there wasn't much good about the original.

I guess they didn't learn their lesson with the 'made for TV' versions of The Shining and Trucks, which both SUCKED.

IF any of you people have any PRIDE you will not type SYFY (it makes you look dumb) SCI-FI work for so many years even before the Chanel. They did it to relate to a younger crowd to the texting generation. if you cant type one more letter you suck.

I agree, SYFY looks stupid. The second I saw them change the little corner logo, I rolled my eyes. SCI-FI's much better. SYFY, to me, is like it's pronounced "See-Fee".

I won't be watching. I've refused to watch anything on the channel formerly known as Sci-Fi since they changed their name.

Most made for sci-fi tv movies suck but I will give this one a try. Hopefully I am wrong about this one.

The original was mostly terrible. But it had a creepy, twitchy atmosphere that I liked, and there were some decent scenes of horror; the cafe massacre, etc. But oh my god! It had some of the worst child actor performances I've ever seen! Truly cringe making stuff!
