    IMDB info isn't always reliable. The screenplay for the SyFy remake is by the director, Donald P. Borchers.

    Gee... do we really think they could top Linda Hamilton and Peter Horton?!?

    I don't know... that's a pretty high bar.

    Plus there will be another Children of the Corn movie, this time a theatrical feature "reimaging" the original short story: http://www.firstshowing.net/2009/09/...n-of-the-corn/

    I think it was because there were so many unanswered questions in the original...

    So, anybody watched this? I DVRed it and tried watching it this weekend, but it just wasn't very good. I watched maybe the first half an hour, then deleted it. The girl was pretty though

    Yeah, I saw it. Wasn't too great, but at the same time it stayed very faithful to the short story. Still worth watching IMO

    The story was much creepier. They really overused that clichéd trick of a child popping up toward the edge of the frame and just staring there, being all weird, while the character in peril has his or her back turned away. With scary music.

    I made it through 45 minutes, but I didn't give it my full attention. I couldn't. It was just awful. The whiney couple drove me bonkers.

    I wasn't very impressed with it. I got through the first hour then finally turned it off.

    I figured I could catch the ending some other time on one of the many times the Syfy Channel will rerun it.
