We sat down with the director and writer of the CHILDREN OF THE CORN (2023) to unearth the latest version of the Stephen King short story. Discover what it took to create a film in the middle of the pandemic and why it was delayed nearly three years.

In the film, possessed by a spirit in a dying cornfield, a twelve-year-old girl in Nebraska recruits the other children in her small town to go on a bloody rampage and kill all the adults and anyone else who opposes her. A bright high schooler who won't go along with the plan is the town's only hope of survival.

CHILDREN OF THE CORN is available to stream as of today (March 21st) via Shudder. The VOD release is on March 21st, while the DVD and Blu-ray release lands on May 9th.
