My problem with the beginning is it&#8217;s the same setup we&#8217;ve seen a million times and it doesn&#8217;t even try to do anything new.<\/h3>\n<h3>Once the story gets going it becomes very evident that the actors themselves aren&#8217;t really that great, especially the child actors. IU mean no offense by that but there are good young actors out there, they&#8217;re just not in this movie and it soon becomes very tedious.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/COC-STORE-e1275631133342.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"22010\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/razs-midnight-macabre-horror-review-children-of-the-corn-revelation\/coc-store-e1275631133342\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/COC-STORE-e1275631133342.jpg?fit=950%2C518&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"950,518\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"COC-STORE-e1275631133342\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/COC-STORE-e1275631133342.jpg?fit=300%2C164&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/COC-STORE-e1275631133342.jpg?fit=660%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-22010\" alt=\"COC-STORE-e1275631133342\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/COC-STORE-e1275631133342-660x359.jpg?resize=500%2C300\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">The film does pick up but by then the dullness has set in and it becomes slow paced and highly predictable, which makes for really boring viewing. It isn&#8217;t helped by trying to expand on a backstory that becomes so muddled as the film goes on, it has it&#8217;s moments but there few and far between.<\/h3>\n<h3>This film is Director\u00a0Guy Magars last to date and it&#8217;s not exactly surprising judge on this, it is filmed sloppily and the story is very lazy. It had potential to be something really enjoyable, with a big budget or not, but this seems like it was done by someone who read a &#8220;101 ways to make a Horror film&#8221;.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2788.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"22011\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/razs-midnight-macabre-horror-review-children-of-the-corn-revelation\/attachment\/2788\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2788.jpg?fit=600%2C325&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"600,325\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2788\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2788.jpg?fit=300%2C163&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2788.jpg?fit=600%2C325&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-22011\" alt=\"2788\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/2788.jpg?resize=500%2C300\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8220;Children Of The Corn &#8211; Revelation&#8221; is a definite dip in the series and it&#8217;s such a shame as it could&#8217;ve been so much different with the source material.<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">If you enjoy the Horror stuff I do for SomeWhatNerdy then make sure you click on the links below:<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Raz\u2019s Midnight Macabre\u00a0Facebook page\u00a0<strong>(<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RazsMidnightMacabre\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Raz\u2019s Midnight Macabre\u00a0Blog page\u00a0<strong>(<a href=\"http:\/\/razsmidnightmacabre.blogspot.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a>)<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a girl named Jamie repeatedly tries to contact her grandmother to no avail, she investigates by going to her apartment in Omaha Nebraska.
