Really Surprised!

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

This is one of the scariest movies I have seen. If does not scary you no movie will. The first movie of Children of the corn is very scary. This is scarier. It has a great story line. It also has great acting.

This was not bad at all, its not great but it was decent movie for a sequel for the children of the corn series.This start off, when the bodies have been uncovered and the neighbouring townsfolk of Hemingford, agree to shelter the traumatised children.unaware that they are opening their doors to an awesome force that will threaten their very existence.Once again, the power of He Who Walks Behind The Rows is reincarnated, and commands the children to rise up and rid the land of the adults that defile the sacred corn. It's time for the final sacrifice.This movie did have some real nice death scenes, were really well made, there were some boring moment here and there. The most of the movie was intrusting, but I was a little disappointing ,how the movie ended and thr acting is not great but it is watchable5 out of 10 Good movie

"Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice" is pretty much an okay sequel, staying in sync with the events that happened in the town of Gatlin 8 years earlier, but I'm not sure if I can actually call it better than the original. It's a bit difficult to compare the two movies, since the original definitely wasn't aiming for gore or spectacular kills. The first "CotC" tried to build a bit of mystery and played it a little more creepier. Sure, by today's standards that might very well translate to 'a little more goofier'. But truthfully, upon re-watching "CotC II", I couldn't help noticing it also has its fair share of (unintended) goofy moments. Like the two old sister characters, whose deaths are more funny than terrifying, really (one gets crushed by a house on pillars, the other gets catapulted with her wheelchair into a room full of Bingo-players). And where did that Indian mumbo-jumbo explanation all of the sudden come from? Christie Clark was an enormously cute teen-babe at the time; just thought I'd mention that.After this first sequel, 4 others followed each other rapidly throughout the '90s, so "CotC II" is much more responsible for starting up the whole franchise than the original was. And all sequels are pretty much on par with what all other sequels from other franchises were being cranked out those days (the '90s installments of the "Amytiville" series, for example). Hardly great horror movies, but they always managed to entertain me, trying to come up with some original & amusing kills time after time or desperately hoping to bring a new twist to tired concepts.Noteworthy is that Bob Keen & Gary J. Tunnicliffe did the special effects on "CotC II". But then again, it's not exactly their most impressive work ever. At any rate, I did have fun re-watching "CotC II". I like the musical score by Daniel Licht also. He's a talented composer, though people hardly seem to know which (horror) movies he was involved with.

Watching this movie makes it all the more obvious that the people who were involved with the previous movie simply were not capable enough of making a decent genre movie. As an horror movie this movie is actually quite a good and effective one.The movie works out way better than "Children of the Corn", from 1984. It's not only due to the better written story that the movie works out but also because all of the elements in it do. The children are far more convincing and kind of scary this time, because they actually get to do some very evil stuff this time. There are quite a few killings in this movie, of which some are quite graphic to watch as well.I can even say that this movie is more Stephen King like, even though Stephen King was not involved with this movie or its story at all, unlike the first movie, which got based on a novel by him. This movie its story, characters, horror and even humor reminded much more of King's style than the first movie really.The movie also does a far better job at explaining stuff. In the first movie basically nothing what happened got explained. In this movie we get to learn a bit more about the past and why things happened the way they did in the small town of Gatlin.I also like how the actual corn in this movie does play a prominent role. The corn in these movies should always be an evil and perhaps even scary thing, you don't want to go into, during night or daytime. The corn is actually a part of the movie its horror. I also liked the score by Daniel Licht, which was simply a great one for an horror movie. He's a composer that has never really broken through yet, though he's getting some fame and attention now for his work on the hit-series "Dexter".Really much better than the first movie.7/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
