Children of the Corn (1984) | Killer Kids, Wasted Potential
About this episode
The episode discusses the 1984 horror film Children of the Corn, exploring its cult status and the reasons behind its sequels.
Episode one of our Stephen King mini-season! Often maligned, Children of the Corn is a sleeper classic. It has its fans, enough so that it (somehow) spawned a franchise with eight sequels. It doesn't make sense to us either. Join us as we try to make some sense of this funny little horror movie. ___ Please consider joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/wwibofficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whywasntitbetter Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/wwibpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wwib_official X: https://x.com/WWIBpodcast Subscribe!
