Premise:
From Donald P. Borchers comes the resurrection of the most unholy shocker of all: It's 1975, and a young married couple - Vietnam vet Burt (David Anders of Alias and Heroes) and preacher's daughter Vicki (Kandyse McClure of Battlestar Galactica) - are driving cross-country straight into the heartland of Hell. Here in Gatlin, Nebraska, the town's bloodthirsty children - led by the boy preacher Issac and his teen enforcer Malachai - have slaughtered all adults by command of He Who Walks Behind The Rows. Now two new Outlanders have arrived...and The Time of Sacrifice is at hand. Preston Bailet (Dexter) and Daniel Newman co-star in this brutal and chilling re-imagining of King's infamous take, featuring graphic footage not seen in the television broadcast.

Aside from the nostalgia factor, the original is definitely a problematic film that comes shy of reaching that "classic" status for me.  But I would rather watch it on a rotation than sit through this POS again.

This is simply a remake that should never have been done. Stephen King movies are often hit or miss. The original Children of the Corn is quite simply a classic. This new version was worthless. Isaac was not by any means scary. The rest of the cast, especially the children, were not very good either. Very disappointing. I went in with an open mind, but was not surprised of the outcome since it premiered on ScyFy.
