This sequel to the 1984 movie that was based on Stephen King’s short story follows on from the first film as the bodies of the adults are discovered in a cellar, which grabs the attention of the authorities and the media.

Now if you have read my review of the first film the other day you will have seen how much I still enjoyed the film that starred Linda Hamilton, Peter Horton and John Franklin, but when it came to Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice which came along in 1992 (8 years after the first film), it becomes a bit more tongue in cheek over the original film.

Watched last night as I’ve read the Stephen king novel and watched the original film so going into the remake will it be any good it’s okay not as good as the original there are some changes in this version from the original the main being the daughter being brought from the dead and not the son.and there’s John lithgow who usually plays crazy characters actually plays a normal character which is a change for him but for me definitely star in the has to be jete Laurence who plays the daughter and plays both versions of her character brilliant overall okay film still prefer the original

So, 2 things:

1) I actually listened to the Stephen Fry presented Audible version of this (in between bouts of actually reading it)
2) I was expecting there to be an over-arching plot, similar to something like 'The Hounds of the Baskervilles'

With regards to #2, there isn't.

This, instead, hews closer to something like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes in that it is presented as a series of more-or-less standalone cases, with the final one in the collection 'His Last Bow' and with that one set in the early 1910s, just before the outbreak of World War One, and in which Holmes comes out of retirement to solve one last case.
