This week we're joined by friend of the show and newly inducted CORN KID, JC HENDRICKS, to discuss a prequel to the sprawling CHILDREN OF THE CORN franchise takes us back to where it all started: 20 miles outside of Gatlin, briefly, and then southeastern California. (Sorry, but it's canon now.)
With total disregard for its namesake, CHILDREN OF THE CORN: GENESIS joins films like THE MANGLER REBORN and SOMETIMES THEY COME BACK...FOR MORE in the pantheon of movies that were retrofitted into existing franchises for marketing purposes. But even a bastard MANGLER sequel has more dignity than this straight-to-DVD joint, which seems to be comprised of half original footage and half sequences from other projects Dimension owned the rights to.
