Last month I shared that a fresh take on Stephen King’s “Children of the Corn” would be arriving in theaters this March. On Monday, RLJE Films released the trailer for the film giving us our first look at an all-new generation of adult-hating killer kids.
Written and directed by Kurt Wimmer (“Ultraviolet”), the latest take on “Children of the Corn” follows twelve-year-old Eden, possessed by a spirit in a dying cornfield, who recruits children in her small town to rise up and take control. Tired of paying the price for their parent’s mistakes, Eden leads the kids on a bloody rampage, killing the adults and anyone who opposes her. With the town’s adults jailed or dead, one high schooler who won’t go along with the plan becomes the town’s only hope of survival.
The film stars Elena Kampouris (“Before I Fall”), Kate Moyer (“Station Eleven”), Callan Mulvey (“The Gray Man”), and Bruce Spence (“The Road Warrior”).
“Children of the Corn” arrives exclusively in theaters on March 3, 2023.
