Children of the Corn (1984): Outlander!!!! We have your woman! #35

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.

We break down this dark teen fantasy/horror hybrid scene by scene, exploring its themes of female empowerment, trauma, revenge, and the not-so-magical consequences of dabbling in the occult with mean girls.

This week, Richard and Angeles go full Kevin Bacon as they dive into Hollow Man (2000)—a slick, unsettling blend of sci-fi, horror, and early-2000s tech obsession where invisibility turns deadly fast.
We break down this morally decaying ride scene by scene, exploring how director Paul Verhoeven transforms the invisible man trope into a story of power, perversion, and unchecked ego.

We break down this horror classic scene by scene, exploring how Barker’s vision gave birth to one of the most original horror mythologies of all time.
