Writer-director Kurt Wimmer (Equilibrium) is bringing us a new take on the classic Stephen King short story Children of the Corn—and the trailer has finally emerged from the fields!
In Children of the Corn: “Possessed by a spirit in a dying cornfield, a twelve-year-old girl in Nebraska recruits the other children in her small town to go on a bloody rampage and kill all the adults and anyone else who opposes her. A bright high schooler who won’t go along with the plan is the town’s only hope of survival.”
Elena Kampouris (Sacred Lies), Kate Moyer (Our House), Callan Mulvey (Till Death), and Bruce Spence (The Road Warrior) star in the film, which has been acquired for release by RLJE Films and Shudder.
Children of the Corn will get an 18-day theatrical run starting on March 3rd before coming to digital and on-demand platforms on March 21st. Check out the trailer below.
