Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return

Ok, so we suddenly jump 660 sequels to get to part 666, the main feature of which is the return of Isaac from the original. The only actor to be in more than 1 of these films. Nancy Allen is here too, taking over the role of Rachel from the first film and now trying to stop her estranged daughter from returning to the town and fulfilling some prophecy.

The most surprising thing about this film is how visual it was. I did not expect to get to part 6 and admire the cinematography, the lighting, the colours. It all goes towards making a mood that works well for the film, even though it feels so very mid 90's music video. At least you can tell there was an actual director at the helm on this one.

And one of the strangest love scenes I've seen in a horror film.

A big step up from the last entry. Better actors, a story that's still pretty tenuous but at least the effort is there. And while there's not much gore this one goes for mood and succeeds pretty admirably.
