This week, Richard and Angeles head into the cornfields to confront Children of the Corn (1984)—a Stephen King adaptation that spawned a cult (and like... seven sequels nobody asked for). It’s a tale of rural dread, religious fanaticism, and kids who definitely need a time-out.
We break down this campy cult classic scene by scene, taking a look at how it blends apocalyptic zealotry with King’s signature small-town paranoia. From He Who Walks Behind the Rows to Isaac's overacting and Malachai's rage-face, we’re dishing all the juicy kernels of horror goodness.
