Reader Reviews
I gotta tell ya, this series isn't rocketing down the drain with the sorta speed I woulda imagined. In fact, this one is actually better than 3 in a number of ways, though not enough better for it to actually be, ya know, good, so it's actually less entertaining. But hell, I didn't mind seeing it, and it was amusing enough for me to continue on with the series. This one isn't directly related to any of the earlier films. It's more of a knockoff than a sequel, really. There's no reference to Gaitlin but it is still in Nebraska, in uh, some other town. Also, there is corn, but it ain't directly related to the action in any way. Still, ya have got a lotta evil children with Old testament style names, so it's got the same basic flavor. This one involves Grace, who came back to Nebraska to take care of her crazy, ailing mother. She's a med student and goes to work in the local doctor's office while she's there. A strange plague breaks out, affecting various children, but no one else. They all seem to recover spontaneously, but definitely aren't the same, anymore. I gotta tell ya, I kinda like this plot. The execution isn't very good, but it's got a decent base. I think they coulda made a decent script from this premise, and this isn't as laughable as the kinda ultra-cheap horror usually is. Though this movie has got a fair bit of gore in it, it's actually trying to be more conventionally scary than the prior sequels seemed to be. It can't pull this off, but it is a bit less silly than some of the earlier stuff. Still, it has got some decent gore, and they use the scythe a whole lot. There wasn't nearly enough scythe action in the prior CotC films. This movie gets some extra attention cause it stars Naomi Watts. Some people will tell you that her performance here is a lot better than you'd usually see in this kinda film, but ehh, I dunno. It's better, yeah, but not that much better, and still the stuff of B-movies. Karen Black is a lotta fun as her crazy mother, however. No one else makes much of an impression. This movie has some pacing problems, as a bit too much of the gore is stuffed towards the beginning, and it fails to really build in anyway. It just kinda meanders along, arrives at the climax, and then ends. Yeah, I guess I'm done. I sufficiently diverting little B-movie. Those who want to see this know who they are. Grade: C
