first off and iam a horror fan . but this tobe hooper production ( come on and the man from the original texas chainsaw and poltergeist . ) be below standard and even for a fan . the acting be not bad at all and some character be unbelievable and but the leading lady be ok. the story be something we have see a hundred time already and without any surprising twist or whatever . never excite or intense and and do not count on any special effect besides blood splash up . the scary zombie kid be white paled face with dark eye and that be it . that might have work in the early 70 but not now . director j. s. cardone do not do a good job in keep the suspense and half way thru there be a risk you will fall asleep . my vote be base primarily on the lead acting and but this could have easily have be call child of the corn 8 represent from the corn field to the mine . enough say .
