Arriving on DVD October 6th from Anchor Bay Entertainment is the SyFy Channel remake of Children of the Corn, which stars David Anders, Kandyse McClure, Daniel Newman and Preston Bailey. Beyond the break you'll find the two promos for the remake that comes from co-writer/producer/director Donald P. Borchers. It'’s 1975, and a young married couple – Vietnam vet Burt (David Anders of ALIAS and HEROES) and preacher’s daughter Vicki (Kandyse McClure of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) – are driving cross-country straight into the heartland of Hell. Here in Gatlin, Nebraska, the town’s bloodthirsty children – led by the boy preacher Isaac and his teen enforcer Malachai – have slaughtered all adults by command of He Who Walks Behind The Rows. Now two new Outlanders have arrived…and The Time Of Sacrifice is at hand. Preston Bailey (DEXTER) and Daniel Newman co-star in this brutal and chilling re-imagining of King’s infamous tale, featuring graphic footage not seen in the Syfy Channel broadcast.
I saw it too and I didn't think it was that bad at all. The ending was definitely better than the original movie's. It was one of the better Syfy movies in recent years.
This movie was just...weird. I've seen worse, and I liked some of the differences between this version and the original...but it still just wasn't very good. I prefer the 80's version.
