Review of Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return

As most fans of this series already know, when a child turned eighteen he or she would be required to sacrifice themselves to "He Who Walks Behind the Rows." But before an 18-year old male would do so he would try to impregnate a female a year or two younger than himself. That being said, a young woman named "Hannah Martin" (Natalie Ramsey) unknowingly has the distinction of being the first child ever born during this particular time 19 years ago. All she knows is that she was given up for adoption by her mother not long after she was born and she feels strangely compelled to drive back to Gatlin, Nebraska to find out what happened to both of her parents. What she doesn't realize is that the child prophet named "Isaac" (John Franklin) is not dead and has been in a coma since that fateful day his followers rebelled against him and put him on a cross. But all of that is about to change and Hannah is the key to it all. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film wasn't too bad but it was somewhat difficult to understand at first due to the lack of character development in regard to some of the supporting actors--and this became especially noticeable during the last scene in the cornfield. Fortunately, it became less murky at the end with the final scene setting itself up for another sequel. Be that as it may, although it doesn't follow the usual theme of its predecessors, this film not only managed to stay faithful to the original story-line but also kept my attention for the most part and for those reasons I have rated it accordingly. Average.
