A young couple becomes stuck in the remote town of Gatlin, Nebraska, where the inhabiting children practice a cult, killing anyone over 18 years old. 

Children of the Corn is the next film we discuss in The Kids Aren't Alright month. An adaptation of the 1977 short story by Stephen King, this movie features children forming a cult and killing off any adults in a remote town in Nebraska. While we were mixed on this movie, it was fun to see the differing power dynamics within a cult formed by children and how they all had different takes on the rules. Watching the young couple come into contact with the children was an interesting clash as they get to experience how far from the norm they've gone. Watch the movie and catch our review.
