Watch Children of the Corn: Runaway For Free

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

When hollywood produces 'sequels' that are nothing more than forgettable, politically cliche, and predictable to the letter plot / story / character arcs within the first 5 seconds of looking at the movie poster: -poor girl is victimized by white men -poor girl escapes evil white men -poor girl is sheltered by society into becoming a young woman, so she can learn to hate evil white men including her own father because HE IS EVIL -poor girl becomes 'strong independent' single mother by raising fatherless child, because the child's father is an evil white man -poor girl murders her fatherless child to protect herself, because as any good mother knows: she matters more than her offspring's safety.The reality is: this is a war. World war 3 is the war of feminists against equality: because we can't evolve past this 'us and them' bs in our own heads. Wake up people; the way past it is if they want to divide you from your own kind: THEM or ENEMY; if they want to unite you with other humans against the inhumanity of other humans (doing so in the name of justice?!?) - US or ALLY.

So disappointed. The movie went no where and was very confusing. It was such a waste of time and money.

Children of the Corn: Runaway (2018) 1/2 (out of 4)Ruth (Marci Miller) is a member of the killer children but when she discovers she's pregnant she burns the other children and heads off with her unborn child to give it a better life. Thirteen years later Marci and her son are trying to start over in a new town but pretty soon she begins to feel that the children are after her.You know, I love horror films and I especially love horror series. Sure, the majority of them don't deliver as many good films as bad ones but I still get a thrill whenever a new sequel is announced to a series. One could really argue that the entire CHILDREN OF THE CORN series hasn't turned out any good films but sadly this one here is without question the worst yet. It's really too bad that this film turned out to be so awful but there's very little here to enjoy.I'm really not sure what director John Gulager and writer Joel Soisson were trying to do with the picture but it's one of the most boring films that I've seen in recent years. The problem with the screenplay is that we're given a lead character that is downright boring and it's someone that the viewer simply doesn't care for. Another major problem with the screenplay is that there are way too many dream sequences and these just get rather tiresome after a while. Heck, I'd even argue that it seems the two are trying to make something other than a CHILDREN OF THE CORN film but were forced to throw that subplot in to sell the film.I really hated most of this movie with a passion. I hated the characters, the setting and the story. There wasn't anything here that I really enjoyed and even the short running time seemed triple what it really was. I'm not sure if the director was trying to deliver some sort of psychological movie but it doesn't work. There's a minor issue with the lead character working for a black man and a local principle causing some trouble. What was all of this about?The one saving grace to the film was Lynn Andrews III who plays the black boss. Again, I'm not exactly sure what the screenplay was trying to do with his character but the actor was very good here and I hope to see him in other projects. CHILDREN OF THE CORN: RUNAWAY has the perfect title because you really should runaway from this film and avoid it at all costs.

Not much to say: The ninth installation in the long-running Children of the Corn series, Stephen King is getting richer and the film world is growing poorer.An endless stream of stereotypes running together as a feature. They include:1) Prejudiced rednecks 2) Cool Black guy..almost 3) Religious nuts 4) Sunglasses wearing deputy 5) Corn childrenBasically, a Syfy channel film with profanity and adult themes...and that's about it. If you like horror and there's nothing else in the RedBox, then OK. Other than that...give this one a wide pass....
