As Good As It Gets
This time there isn't a bunch of kids we follow, there is just those two, and one of them is is just there for the sub-plot (that include brother rivalry and a love interest), as he is Eli's half brother. Eli has a history of worshiping "he who walks behind the rows" and killing parents before he was adopted into a family where he gets his half brother, and now once again he is adopted for the second time after killing his last adoptive parents. This time Eli is starting a new life in the suburbs of Chicago. It doesn't take long before he starts growing his own cornfield in an old closed down factory next to his home, and then it don't take long before he gets a little group of corn cult worshiping children again. There also this sub-plot with his new father who is amazed by Eli's astonishing new corn and are trying to get rich out of it. After the boring and monotone CotC 2, this was a huge step up in entertainment. It's just more fun and had more enjoyable characters. Worth mentioning that Eli has supernatural powers like Isaac in the first movie. Special effect is good and "the puppet" with barbie doll near the end is priceless. I liked this movie, it's not great at all, but fun, a guilty pleasure. One of the better Children of the Corn movies
If you've watched the first two Children of the Corn films, you'll know that they were basically the same plot. In fact, it's pretty hard to make a Children of the Corn film which doesn't revolve around a bunch of 'corn-worshiping' kids killing adults in a field.Here, however, they try to breathe new life into the franchise by changing the setting to Chicago! Gone are the cornfields of small-town America, replaced by - er - cornfields in the middle of a major US city. Yes, two orphans from the original films are relocated to foster parents in Chicago and start planting corn in the back alleys in order to bring the cult of 'he who walks behind the rows' to the masses.It could be terrible. It nearly is. First of all the film is (semi) saved by the lead youngster, who, in my opinion, is the best actor to take on the part of a demonically-possessed psychopath with supernatural powers the series has produced yet. It's kind of worth watching for him alone.The other (again, I use the word 'semi') standout point is the ending. It's weird. Seriously, if you're watching this film and you hate it - fair enough - skip to chapter 15 (I think that's the one before the last) and just watch it from there. It gets totally weird. It's like they've tacked on the ending from another horror movie. If nothing else, I'll bet it gets a laugh out of you! In short: Children of the Corn (1) was the best and most original. Part 2 was so bad it was laughably brilliant (and my favourite simply because it was so dumb). Part 3 does its best to be different. It succeeds in some places and fails miserably in others. Know that you're never going to get an Oscar-worthy epic with this one.
I just don't understand. Why even turn such a bad script into a movie. Well, bad is perhaps not the best word for it but it's just so incredibly standard and there is nothing, spectacular, shocking or memorable ever happening in this movie.None of the Children of the Corn movies are exactly known as brilliants ones and it's not that hard to see why. The movies have a pretty simple concept, that builds and rely on its children characters. Children are however not within the best age group, acting-wise and on top of that, they just aren't very convincing as being scary. It's also a pretty tiresome concept. There is very little to exploit with but yet they managed to make 7 movies so far, focusing on the corn worshiping children, who want to see all adults death.The Eli Porter is just very annoying instead of scary really. What a little brat, even though the actor that played him was already 14 at the time. His acting and just the character in general annoyed me. But can you blame the actor for this really? It was after all the story that gave him too much to do.And is this movie even an horror? It isn't until the end that monsters and other supernatural elements start to kick in. For the other most part the movie just consists out of flashbacks with footage from the previous movie of it in it as well. My 'favorite' thing about this movie its horror are its sound effects. There is a scene in the beginning in which they are just driving around in a car but you constantly hear this horror sound effects, like whispering and such, put under it that makes the sequence seem as if they are in a scary place or right in the middle of a nightmare, though absolutely nothing is happening.And no, overall there is far too little interesting happening in the movie. It was also a pretty odd choice to set this movie in an urban town instead of in the secluded, rural fictional town of Gatlin. I'm still waiting for the "Children of the Corn: In Space" movie. It will probably add just as much to the series as this movie did.The foremost reason why this movie is not a very good one is not because its a bad movie but because its such a standard one, without really any good or interesting ideas of its own.5/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
I didn't really have a beef with this one. We have two brothers.Eli and Joshua.After their father disappears,they move to the city to meet their new guardians.They get sent to a religious school,ran by Father Nolan.Over time,we find out that Eli isn't sane in the head.He starts growing a corn field in an abandoned warehouse to summon He Who Walks Behind The Rows,and controls the other students in the school by bugs in the food.Josh joins forces with his friends Maria,Malcom and Father Nolan to stop Eli and destroy H.W.W.B.T.R.The plot itself is okay.And it later explains how the corn spread.We also learn a bit more about how and why they killed the adults.The death scenes weren't too bad.The one con I did see is how cheesy and bad the effects were.The corn demon looked like a wax figure and when it lifted people up,they looked like dolls.The other effects looked like some Adobe accident on crack.Other than that,it wasn't that bad.
