Children of the Corn, a new horror movie based on Stephen King's works, gets lambasted by critics across the board ahead of its theatrical release.
Children of the Corn 2023 has been ripped apart by critics across the board. The film is the latest entry in the long-running Children of the Corn franchise, based on the 1977 Stephen King short story of the same name. It began with the 1984 Children of the Corn starring Linda Hamilton as one half of a couple who stumbled upon an isolated Midwest town, where a cult of children have killed all the adults.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Critics have been releasing their reviews ahead of the brief release of Children of the Corn 2023. Nearly every critic agrees that the film is boring, amateurish, and unwieldy, failing to breathe new life into the franchise. While some reviews praise the performance of star Kate Moyer, they almost unanimously concur that the movie is too shallow and unfocused to see any redeeming qualities.
Children of the Corn 2023 Continues a Dismal Franchise Trend At the time of writing, Children of the Corn 2023 has a 6 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes. That puts it firmly in the bottom tier of Stephen King projects. While films he has been directly involved in bottom out at 11 percent with 2016's Cell, many Children of the Corn projects fall below even that line.
In the nearly 40-year run of the Children of the Corn franchise, not a single entry has garnered a fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. While some of the more obscure sequels like 2011's Children of the Corn: Genesis don't even have enough reviews to earn a proper score, every single film that has earned a rating has fallen below the original 1984 Children of the Corn and its already rotten 39 percent score.
One point in Children of the Corn 2023's favor is that it's not the lowest-rated film in the franchise. That dubious honor would belong to 2009's Children of the Corn remake and 1999's Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return, both of which are tied at 0 percent. However, it seems that this new film continues the grim franchise trend of failing to redeem the series despite many previous attempts.
