To be fair, Stephen King hated The Shining because it ruined the protagonist of his book, which was a projection of himself. King wrote that book while his alcoholism was destroying his family. The Shining is a metaphor for Stephen's fight to save his family from his alcoholism. To Stephen King, the movie made a character he originally pictured as himself into an unhinged psychopath who had no regard for his family.
Don't forget that another reason he despised the shining movie was because the female actor was practically abused by the director on a constant basis when it came to the scenes. The director freakin' destroyed that woman.
GoodBadFlicks I still think the original is the best in the series, though I remember going to see this in theaters, and also own a DVD copy. With that being said, I also saw "Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise" in theaters...
@@GoodBadFlicks Agreed. Children of the Corn 2 isn't a great movie, but then neither are any of the other movies in the franchise. The difference is that COTC2 knows how to have fun with itself. And Micah is a genuinely great villain, too.
One of my favourite Stephen King films is The Mangler (1995), It's so criminally underrated! It's got fucking Robert Englund and anything that stars him is pure gold!
Just wanted to say thanks for doing this video. I remember being enthralled with Christie Clark as Lacey when I was younger and have often wondered which COTC movie she was in but never really got motivated enough to look for her. Great seeing the character again.
Critters is great! I have 2 on my desk. (little painted replicas) I covered Critters a while ago. You can watch it on my site at the link in the "about" section above. I'll warn you though, its one of my older episodes before I really had my pacing down, so its kind of slow. (at least I think so, I'm really nitpicky about my old videos)
Dr. Weird: Gentlemen! Behold!... Corn! Steve: [pretending to be surprised] Okaaay... you know, this is pretty nice! Yeah, I am kinda hungry... Dr. Weird: Good! Then let the mating BEGIN! Mwahahahahah!
I just read that children of the corn is based on real murders in Nebraska 1964... I love Stephen. Thank you for your courage of writing the shining.. thank you for all of your stories ♥️
Come on, now. I'm sure King never thought that Steven Webber could "out do" Nicholson. He just wanted someone closer to the guy he was imagining when he wrote the thing. A basically normal guy who had a dark side who SLOWLY gets driven mad as opposed to a guy who's barely covering up his contempt for his whole damn life who snaps in no time at all. Yeah, it turned out to be a hell of a lot less entertaining to watch. But that WAS the center of the story he wrote... which the first movie basically skipped over. Also... he was working with a TV budget. Gotta cut him some slack on that one.
Thank you for the great review. Because of your review I found out I have not seen Children of The Corn. I've seen Village of the Damned numerous times on a Spanish channel that mistranslated Village of the Damned as Children of the corn. Good thing Netflix has all but this film on their instant streaming service. Yes, candy is the best way not to get murdered.
I think the rights to CoC2 are owned by a different company than the others, hence why it is the only on not on Netflix. This is way better than the remake of Village of the Damned. Wow, really? That's weird the two words aren't even close! Thanks!
The first movie had Isaac coming back from the dead to claim Malachi's soul. "He wants you too, Malachi. He wants you too." Soooo... legitimate demonic threat, not just "evil kid cult worshipping corn".
One Summer, I drove from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to Marshalltown on secondary roads--in the country. Just mile after mile, after mile, of nothing but corn.
My older brother rented the first "Children of the Corn" movie way back in the early 90s (I think I was about 11 or 12 years old). I watched it with my little sister (I think she was 8 or 9); and it scared the crap out of both of us. Now, I'm 38 years old, and I STILL get goosebumps when I see a field with stalks of ANYTHING in it. Corn, wheat...I don't care! You won't catch me in a field with crops taller than my knees, thanks to that movie :-)
There's some clever dialogue in this film. When Micah complains to somebody about his strict, religious father. "Everything I did was a "sin". Playing video games, talking to girls....then one day I saw my father on the kitchen floor with the maid. Sinning most vigorously".
The prequel has come out in 2020/21 I believe and only showed at one or two theatres locally. Amazing allot of the cast are Australian and within Australia, quite decent names.
I did a few years ago. If you go to the link in below the video (yt won't let me post links in comments) and then use the search for Arena. Its a few years old so the flow of the episode is different from the way I do things now. Enjoy!
I understand it's just a movie but in reality these kids at the very least would have been moved away from each other to prevent exactly what ended up happening!
It's nice to see I am not the only one who enjoyed this one. While the first one's good, I enjoyed this one much better, mainly due to the characters besides the villains, I found them more interesting. Plus its a fun flick. Both this and Hellraiser 3 were made like an hour or 2 down the road from where I live, so it's fun to watch and try to guess where they filmed at. Christie Clark was on Days of Our Lives for a ton of years as well, forgot she was in Nightmare 2! She was a babe in this.
Thank you and finally found a decent review, which doesn't say shit like... terrible CGI or acting... you can tell you may have seen this close to when it originally came out? It was a fun movie and when I was 11 or 12 when I first saw it, yeah sleep lost. The detail with this review was great! A number of very good facts about the time, characters and locations...I have heard conflicting statements about the town hall. One being as you said for a fire drill and the other the production company paid to burn it down so the town could buy another one.... seriously good work dude!
Thanks! I had the director contact me a few years after this was released to tell me some additional stuff. Nice guy, he was married to Lysette Anthony (Krull) for a while.
Nice, I remember liking this one a lot. Not a-maize-ing, but pretty good. I remember liking Urban Harvest as well, but I turned the fourth one off after a few minutes. Great review as always!
I can't be the only one who used to get freaked out by the VHS tape boxes at the movie store, back in the 90's as a kid.. They always picked the creepiest artwork, along with the creepiest shots from the film. But then actually watching those films........ Jesus, what a let down.
No, you're not the only one. I remember getting pretty creeped out by the vhs artwork of certain horror films, back in the day, also. Today's DVD & Blu-ray artwork pale in comparison to the old 80s & 90s vhs cover artwork.
You're right I will do a video on this - although 90s didn't have "true" art like 80s those covers did sell me and boy you are right they often promised a lot better things. Wishmaster - great box - bad movie LOL
I remember watching a video called the Night Shift Collection when I was a kid. It contained two short films based on Stephen King short stories, one was The Night Waiter (which I could not figure out what story it was from) and the other was Disciples of the Crow (based on Children of the Corn). Wish I could find that tape. Both films were kinda creepy, and I believe Disciples of the Crow was one of the films made under King's "Dollar Baby" agreement.
The first movie was just awesome, both as a horror movie and as a straight-up action movie. The finale was a classic down-to-the-wire battle between good and evil. Like a lot of horror movies with action elements, it had an extra layer of drama because the protagonists weren't super-men but rather normal people thrust into crazy circumstances. This movie looks fun but it'd be kinda hard to watch without comparing to the first one, which it appears to have departed from quite a bit in terms of tone. I'm still probably gonna watch it though.
4:30 So that's Grady's little sister from ANOES Part 2-Freddy's Revenge? wow she really ''filled out''good LOL! Awesome &funny review as always Cecil I got a chance to revisit the first film sometime last year It just didn't get me at all it had to munch problems but this sequel I bearley remember.The only thing I remember was the death of the old lady in a wheelchair by remote control LOL!
There was actually 2 Night Shift Collections. The one you had and one with The Boogeyman and The Woman In The Room. Very hard to come by and pretty decent. A shame for whatever reason they never made it to DVD. You think with King's name alone they would want to put them out.
They are online. Funny story King saw "Woman" and that the director a lot. King is only a BO name now. Shawshank actually did poor BO Would really like to do some stuff with you - great jokes and narration wish my reviews were up to your level LOL
This franchise is great :) I've seen all the movies except the remake (reboot?). While I loved the first 3 movies, the rest were still enjoyable. In my opinion, this serie is a little stronger than Halloween or Friday the 13th. A lot of sequels in those franchises were forgettable or just plain bad. Also, I was expecting at least one corn pun and you did not disappoint, sir ;) Keep up the good work!
Oh yes I agree, both COTC 1 and 2 are on my Halloween marathon list. And yeah I drove by Liberty once and seen the corn field, but that was before I watched it, after that I remembered passing by there it blew my mind. Ever seen the Making of Feature of both this and Hellraiser 3? It's from the local news station around here and shows filming and talking to the movie crew, it's quite cool. It's on You Tube and I liked it. Just figured I would ask but you probably seen it already!
I saw this and yet, don't remember much of it at all. The first one, yeah, this--not so much. Thanks. I love re-discovering movies as much as ones I've never seen. Oh, and I hate (if no one else has) to be the first chick to point this out, but I know Christie Clark the best as Carrie on 'Days Of Our Lives', lol.
Would be great if you 'explore' Jeepers Creepers, it's got very effective moments, and there's always something special about highway movies in my opinion.
Movies I can't stand? Hmmm...here's a few. Juno, The Hangover, I Accidentally Domed Your Son, The Starfighters, Epic/Disaster/Superhero Movie, Spider-man 3, Transformers 2, High Fidelity, Wedding Crashers, Superman Returns, The Pink Panther remake, White Chicks, and more. At some point I'll probably do a video talking about movies I dislike and why I don't like them.
Jay Villan corn fields are creepy and isolated and perfect for quiet towns. and children of the sugar cane or children of the wheat field just doesnt sound as good
Oh my god, that nose bleed scene. I saw this movie when I was really young and that damn scene caused me to be scared to freaking death every time I had a nosebleed. All I could think was, what if it doesn't stop! I've been meaning to ask. What are the movies that you personally can't stand and find irredeemable in any way?
Thanks to this review I am now watching St.Elsewhere and its a great show so far. Almost done with Season 1 and always loved Terrance Knox on Tour of Duty :)
Actually, there have been another six films (five sequels, one of which, Children of the Corn: Revelation, Cecil left out) and the Syfy remake and sequel/reboot he spoke of.
"He who walks behind the rows" is a real pain in the ass to deal with every time I go to the movies, always bumping my seat what an asshole
2:03 "Here's a lollipop. Don't murder me." That's what I say to every trick-or-treater who comes to my house on Halloween.
Michael Wolfe I feel like you got that from Trick 'R Treat.
I just stick razor blades and ecstasy in caramels
The scene were the kids stab the old doctor to death with needles was quite disturbing. Especially after he was nice enough to give them lollipops.
Young killers in '90's horror films often had a sick sense of humor. Mikey, The Paper Boy, and Scream are three other fine examples.
I think I just spit out my coffee hearing the Road Runner beep-beep...haha...
Enderboy32 :)
I loled so hard,man! :D

Crazy to think that King would entrust his secrets to you kids!!!
@@burnsmybritches5857 what?
Yeah it seems that the 90s TV series was closer to what King really had in mind.
“Those kids went ape skit and killed everybody *head nod*” lol I love it
I was hoping for at least one joke that involved the band Korn
I actually love this one. And the wheelchair launch is one of the most memorable scenes for me in a movie lol.
Kyle Parkhurst its my favorite of the franchise

GBF has perfected exploration of these retro genre films ....this channel should be listed as a public service!
This movie scared me as a kid. Growing up I was terrified whenever we drove past a cornfield 😭😭😭😭
i always thought that this movie was a bit corny
torquetheprisoner ba dum tish :)
+GoodBadFlicks can you review The Good Dinosaur. I believe it's the most underrated Pixar movie.
Pure fucking cornball...
The only way it could be anymore so would be if Korn did the soundtrack.
I love the 'Suffering' too
EAR EAR!!!!
Terrence Knox looks like Sean Astin and Viggo Mortensen's love child.
Even though i prefer Isaac over Micah. I did enjoy this movie more than the first one,
One of my favourite Stephen King films is The Mangler (1995), It's so criminally underrated! It's got fucking Robert Englund and anything that stars him is pure gold!
sounds like a Vincent Price movie
Agree I saw Mangler and its been forgotten sadly
Its ratings have been mangled.
5 "Wrong turn" movies? Get a damn GPS!
They did, sadly though they used Apple Maps
GPS GOOGLE MAPS :
" YOU'RE FUCKED "
" HAVE A NICE DAY "
Waze got them kilt!
There are 6 now, with a seventh coming up.

Still those living topiary bushes were dumb though.
All of the sequels besides 7&3 r guilty pleasures of mine

No problem, I'm glad you enjoyed it. "sinning most vigorously" used to be a phrase I had on a forum back in the day lol

The funniest part? "FORRRRNICATION!" "is the last thing I want to hear this guy talk about!"
at 8:23 did you say red bull instead of red bear. ? lol :)

I heard there might be a prequel in the works - "Children of the Corn: The Antepenultimate Sacrifice".

I'd like to see more Stephen King movies. One of my favorites is The Dead Zone.
Awesome, many thanks
lol a-maize-ing
I remember IV being rough but I think V was good. Now I want to go back and watch them all.
Thanks!
Here's a question that's really bugging me about this film series.
Why corn? Why use it as a sacred thing for the devil? Does it represent something?
Jay Villan Valid question. I think it has to do with the isolation of growing up in farm country. Not much to do besides start a cult lol.
Yes it symbolizes this movie as being corny...like this joke.lol
Jay Villan corn fields are creepy and isolated and perfect for quiet towns. and children of the sugar cane or children of the wheat field just doesnt sound as good
***** What about calling it "He Who Walks Behind The Rows"? Or "Disciples of the crow"(cause that's what it was originally titled)?
The Variety Vendor they are pretty good titles
:)
So happy. This made me lol as I was working on it.
Oh my god, that nose bleed scene. I saw this movie when I was really young and that damn scene caused me to be scared to freaking death every time I had a nosebleed. All I could think was, what if it doesn't stop!
I've been meaning to ask. What are the movies that you personally can't stand and find irredeemable in any way?

"Is this corn from Nilbog?" Nice Troll 2 reference
Stephen King is also the one who directed maximum overdrive.
