Percolated Media

Only two more to go before we can leave this franchise in Gatlin!

No, we did not take the first show and re-upload it. What we have today is a remake of the original short story that was produced and aired on Sci-Fi Channel in 2009. Is it a vast improvement over the 1984 version? Will anyone have something remotely positive to say? Tune in to find out.

To finish by 2025, we will post the final two Corn entries on New Year's Eve. Enjoy this review of Part VII until then!

We have officially hit the halfway benchmark in this retrospective. To "celebrate" the occasion, we have the return of original mainstay John Franklin as both as actor and storyteller. How do the boys feel about this installment? Is the movie as absurd as this title? Listen to find out.

No preamble needed here beyond “we are contractually obligated to review these from here on out.”

Apologies for the upload delay, as we experienced some technical glitches in our site. We're back and are going to post a Corn show every day until we're caught up. Thanks for listening and here's our next review in the franchise!

Who says theatrical releases are the exclusive movies that we review on these airwaves? Well, I think Garrett has made that exception for EVERYTHING in the world of Stephen King. I hope this answers why we are posting on a Wednesday. Between that and Adam/Matt wanting to go through this series like a tractor through an abandoned cornfield.

Here's our review of the first direct to video installment in the Children of the Corn franchise! We'll review Part 4 on our regularly scheduled Friday and continue this style until its conclusion. Let's hope no one snaps by then and we no longer are friends.

Nothing screams Thanksgiving quite like this title. Listen in as we continue on our "journey" to review all the Children of the Corn entries to close out this chapter of Stephen King. Will this "final sacrifice" be what Adam wants to occur during this show? Or will be press on like a good soldier to block out the pain? Is there anything positive to say about this entry in comparison to the original? Tune in to find out and we hope you have a great weekend!

As a disclaimer, since the remaining installments are all direct to video releases, we will be increasing our output to two-three Corn shows a week. This will help us get back on track and allow Adam and Matt to finally get out of this series. Garrett has been hard at work editing so we'll be able to stick to this plan until its conclusion.

What better way to bring in Thanksgiving, a holiday full of eating food, laughing with relatives, and watching football, than with beginning our series that’s going to close our look at Stephen King’s Night Shift Collection. That’s the good news. The bad news, is Children of the Corn is a series that contains 11 movies!

Here, we start from the beginning, 1984’s original Linda Hamilton starring original film. King himself wrote a treatment that got discarded because one, he didn’t have nearly as much clout at this time. But as a result of King being booted from the creative process of making the movie, the oncoming regime of director Fritz Kiersch and screenwriter George Goldsmith had to work with a budget that was sliced by half a million dollars, which was given to the disgruntled author in order to retain his name in the credits.

And this is just the beginning. Listen in as Garrett, Matt, and Adam start what is both literally and figuratively amongst the longest retrospectives they have ever done. Can they last this part of the King retrospective without killing each other with scythes? Download the show to find out!!

Whether you like the film or not, it can definitely be argued that 2019’s Joker was a full story. In fact, when they reviewed it two years ago, The Three Men A Retrospective Podcast said just as much. However, by the end of that year, we had gotten word that Todd Phillips and company were working on a sequel.

So given the first film grossed over $1 billion, they had their green light. With Lady GaGa signing on, they had their Harlie Quinn. And with the announcement that the film was a musical, they had their genre.

Or did they? Listen in as Garrett, Adam, and Matt discuss whether Phillips was true tk his word and made a musical, as well as if Joker Folie a Deux is as bad as its reputation perceives it to be.
