“…but ruined by the ending. The infamous ending of the third part of the Children of the Corn series feels like a disaster of epic proportions that kills what otherwise could be a near perfect movie. Nevertheless, this movie has many good things that are worth a watch.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot is a very good twist to the well-known saga of u0026quot;He Who Walks Behind the Rowsu0026quot;. After the horrifying events in Gatlin, two brothers, Eli(Daniel Cerny) u0026amp; Joshua(Ron Melendez) are sent to a foster house in Chicago. Their new family is very eager to have children and gives them a warm welcome, but Eli u0026amp; Joshua feel the cultural shock as they try to get used to the urban environment. While Joshua tries to fit in, the younger Eli begins to plant corn in order to bring the cult of u0026quot;He Who Walks Behind the Rowsu0026quot; to the world.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt is indeed a very good script, and for the most part it works. It is a huge improvement over the past sequels and in my humble opinion, sometimes it even surpasses the original. Daniel Cernyu0026#39;s performance is outstanding and one wonders why he suddenly stopped working when he was one of the very few child actors who could give a believable performance.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe eerie atmosphere is back and there are great moments of suspense and surrealistic imagery. This is what Children of the Corn movies should be. The direction is pretty good, and it handles the script with perfection and lets it flow with good rhythm.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIf all these is so good, what can be so bad that makes the movie fail in the end? Without giving spoilers, let me just say that even when the SFX are top-notch for a low-budget movie; the ending pretends to be of epic proportions and ends up being one of the biggest SFX disasters ever.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDonu0026#39;t get me wrong, even with itu0026#39;s HUGE SFX faults, it still is better than average, but it breaks everything that was build up to that moment, the eerie atmosphere fill with suspense turns into a savage gore fest in the style of u0026quot;Evil Deadu0026quot; but without the talent. It just feels like a different movie.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOverall, itu0026#39;s worth a rent, especially for Daniel Cernyu0026#39;s performance who truly saves the film(no surprise that itu0026#39;s when he is gone that the movie falls down). Itu0026#39;s good entertainment if you see it with a open mind.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e7/10”
