"As ye sow, so shall ye reap - and for all its initial creepiness, in the end this Mid-western gothic yields a big cropful of corn. Anton Bitel, Movie Gazette"

"Katsottu: 13.1.2013 Katselin tuossa yksi ilta DVD-kokoelmaani ja aloin miettiä, miksi minulla on Maissilapset? Leffa on lojunut hyllyssä varmaan kymmenen vuotta, enkä vieläkään ollut sitä katsonut. Päätin korjata asian. Enkä kyllä vieläkään tajua, miksi minulla on tämä elokuva… Maissilapset on varmaan kulttijuttu, mutta henkilökohtaisesti en voi nostaa elokuvaa kovin korkealle King-filmatisoinneissa. Alussa on suhteellisen hyvä kohtaus, jossa kaupungin lapset ottavat vallan, "

Phillydude's Movie Log - November, 2012 (30 movies items)

" Watched November 5th - Amazon Streaming - 1st Viewing "There's something very strange about this town" - Vicky Baxter I had heard alot about Children of the Corn, but hadn't seen it, or if I have, I forgot I had, which is possible because the movie is pretty forgettable. It does set up the premise of murderous kids serving the demon of the cornfield well and the beginning part of the movie is sufficiently creepy - but then the film starts to fall apart and the ending is dreadful - the act"

October Movie Journal - HorrorFest 2012 Edition (33 movies items)

"Oct. 24th Where the fuck is Gatlin? Does anyone know the way to Gatlin?! Augh!! And holy shit, that kid's mouth makes Steven Tyler's look small. The first 30 minutes start out promising. And then the final, oh, 60 minutes or so go straight to shit real quick. Possibly this was something of a decent flick when it first hit audiences in 1984. But by now, the movie gets stuck in a lot of "been there, seen that"- and seen it far better. With better performances and better direction. The child"
