Children of the Corn V is yet another 90s horror movie made in an attempt to cash in on the success of
Scream. It borrows heavily from 80s slasher movies, including lifting a handful of sequences straight out of
Friday the 13th: A New Beginning. It features cameos from genre veterans like Kane Hodder, Fred Williamson, David Carradine and the little ginger kid from
Picket Fences. It's easily one of the better
Children of the Corn sequels, which is hardly high praise. The first two acts are pretty slow and uneventful. Other than some pre-credits kills, there's really no action until an hour into the movie. Despite a few fun parts in the third act, it has one of the dumbest ending bits I've seen in a while.
