" A physician Burt Stanton and his girlfriend Vicky drive across the Midwest to his new job, their trip comes to a sudden halt when they encounter the body of a murdered boy in the road. In trying to contact the authorities, Burt and Vicky wander into a small town populated only by children, followers of sinister young preacher Isaac Chroner. Soon the couple is fleeing the youthful fanatics, who want to sacrifice them to their demonic deity. Based on the short story, by Stephen King, is a sho"

"Gatlin, Nebraska Gatlin is a small rural town in Nebraska, adjacent to the Hemingford Home. It is the main setting of Children of the Corn, where a sign states that the population is 4531. Why you wouldn’t want to visit: If you’re an adult, you wouldn’t last very long."

"A fairly average movie, that is decidedly more scarier than when I first saw it. Having seen only a few Stephen King adaptations, I had very little to compare it to. But now it’s not that bad of a movie, actually."

It does have a young Linda Hamilton pre-Terminator but that is the only high point."
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this movie but, somehow, I still ended up watching this flick. Well, I have to admit that I have never been a huge fan of Stephen King but it has been a while since I have seen such a pathetic adaptation of one of his books. First of all, I thought it was pretty obvious that it was based on a short-story and the makers somehow really struggled to expand this tale. Indeed, at least half of the movie was about Linda Hamilton and her boyfriend driving around the countryside and then running around some ghost town. It was rather bewildering as they could have simply developed the background of these characters or, even better, tell us more about Isaac or about ‘He Who Walks Behind the Rows’.
