Are We Really Getting More 'Children of the Corn'?!
Filed under: Horror, Thrillers, Casting, RumorMonger, Remakes and Sequels
While my mother swears that Friday the 13th was responsible for many a nightmare in my six-year-old mind (thanks to sneak viewings at a friend's house), Children of the Corn has always been the flick to make my skin crawl. I don't know why. My memories of the film have faded, but the creepy feeling has never completely gone away. And now the kids are coming back to freak me out some more.It's not like there haven't been rumors of a Children of the Corn remake for a while now. In 2007, Darren Lynn Bousman was said to be looking into the idea. But now rumors are intermingled with casting choices. According to Beyond Hollywood, It seems that instead of a big-screen version, the Sci-Fi Channel wants to whip up an original movie tapping an anti-Heroes player and a chick straight out of Battlestar Galactica. Should this rumor be true, it means that David Anders would take on Peter Horton's role, while Kandyse McClure would take on Linda Hamilton's.
Could Adam and Officer Anastasia pull it off? Does it bum you out that it won't be on the big screen? Sound off below!

can't say i'm hurt in the least by it not making it to the bigscreen. hollywood is remake, reboot, re-whatever insane. at least if it only goes to sci-fi channel, it'll be (mostly) easy to ignore.
ah, well.

They are making this in Tipton, IA. Not to far from me. They were holding some calls for little kids in the area. It was pretty interesting listening to the director on the radio with the local DJs trying to understand, why?
