Murderous Rage in Stephen King’s CHILDREN OF THE CORN Red-Band Trailer

Stephen King’s classic and frightening horror story Children of the Corn is getting a new adaptation, and here we have a red-band trailer for you! The movie comes from RLJE Films and AMC network’s horror streaming service Shudder, and it looks like an intriguing and new take on the story.

This movie serves as a prequel: “Possessed by a spirit in a dying cornfield, twelve-year-old Eden recruits the other children in her small town to rise up and take control. Tired of having to pay the price for their parent’s mistakes, Eden leads the kids on a bloody rampage, killing the adults and anyone who opposes her. With all the adults jailed or dead, it comes down to one high schooler who won’t go along with the plan and becomes the town’s only hope of survival. Based on the short story by Stephen King, Children of the Corn is a chilling new re-telling for a whole new generation.”

The original movie disturbed the hell out of me. Kids rising up against their parents and slaughtering them in the name of a cornfield demon is seriously horrific! Check out the trailer below.

Children of the Corn will get a theatrical release on March 3rd before hitting On Demand and Digital on March 21st.
