Two ‘Children of the Corn’ Promo Trailers
Arriving on DVD October 6th from Anchor Bay Entertainment is the SyFy Channel remake of Children of the Corn, which stars David Anders, Kandyse McClure, Daniel Newman and Preston Bailey. Beyond the break you’ll find the two promos for the remake that comes from co-writer/producer/director Donald P. Borchers. It’’s 1975, and a young married couple – Vietnam vet Burt (David Anders of ALIAS and HEROES) and preacher’s daughter Vicki (Kandyse McClure of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) – are driving cross-country straight into the heartland of Hell. Here in Gatlin, Nebraska, the town’s bloodthirsty children – led by the boy preacher Isaac and his teen enforcer Malachai – have slaughtered all adults by command of He Who Walks Behind The Rows. Now two new Outlanders have arrived…and The Time Of Sacrifice is at hand. Preston Bailey (DEXTER) and Daniel Newman co-star in this brutal and chilling re-imagining of King’s infamous tale, featuring graphic footage not seen in the Syfy Channel broadcast.
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
