What better way to bring in Thanksgiving, a holiday full of eating food, laughing with relatives, and watching football, than with beginning our series that’s going to close our look at Stephen King’s Night Shift Collection. That’s the good news. The bad news, is Children of the Corn is a series that contains 11 movies!
Here, we start from the beginning, 1984’s original Linda Hamilton starring original film. King himself wrote a treatment that got discarded because one, he didn’t have nearly as much clout at this time. But as a result of King being booted from the creative process of making the movie, the oncoming regime of director Fritz Kiersch and screenwriter George Goldsmith had to work with a budget that was sliced by half a million dollars, which was given to the disgruntled author in order to retain his name in the credits.
And this is just the beginning. Listen in as Garrett, Matt, and Adam start what is both literally and figuratively amongst the longest retrospectives they have ever done. Can they last this part of the King retrospective without killing each other with scythes? Download the show to find out!!
