Vertigo Releasing has got in touch to reveal details about the digital release details for Children of the Corn, the classic horror based on the short story by genre legend Stephen King.
Children of the Corn is a chilling and barbaric tale of misled youth and small-town rituals. Possessed by a spirit in a dying cornfield, twelve-year-old Eden recruits the other children in her small town to rise up and take control. Tired of having to pay the price for their parents’ mistakes, Eden leads the kids on a bloody rampage, killing the adults and anyone who opposes her. With all the adults jailed or dead, it comes down to one high schooler who refuses to conform and becomes the town’s only hope of survival.
The film is written and directed by Kurt Wimmer, who helmed Equilibrium and Ultraviolet. Elena Kampouris, Kate Moyer, Callan Mulvey and Bruce Spence line up among the cast.
The trailer is below.
