      The kids are really idiots~~

      Adapted from Stephen King’s work, a child keeps saying that it’s a messenger of God, and the children don’t understand anything. If they don’t understand anything after 15 or 6, the protagonist should be killed. This film has a total of 9 parts, seven main stories, one origin, and a 2009 remake, which is the same as the number of episodes of Ghost Street~ This film has only one place to shine, that is, the creation of "Walking Behind the Corn Fields" "The demon." It is really confusing, using...

      Horror has nothing to do with the times, you are an old movie, but you suck.

      The first thing I want to say is that the quality of a horror film should not be divided by era, like "Moonlight, Panic", from the current perspective and special effects, this film is simply too bad, but it is It is the originator of the horror and suspense film, the pioneering work. We have to look at the problem in a disguised form. Teacher Ma said that things are relative. This
      film is the work of Mr. Stephen. I don't see many of his works, but I am very impressed. However, I think the...

      Children's Evil + Religion, John Franklin performed the childishness and viciousness of children in his 20s, but then the evil god came out and really surprised me. The soundtrack is just right, but the story is relatively general or relatively old-fashioned, and in the end everyone escaped and gained 2 children, which is too...

      Seven parts were made in this series, and there is one remake. The first part is so low, and the next one is not as good as one. Who gave you the courage to shoot it? In the original version of this movie, the ending is that Vicki, played by Linda Hamilton, was killed by the children. She joined the "Blue Man" and had her eyes gouged out. This ending was too bloody and was...

    Movie plot

    It is played by Peter Holden and the female Blue Polinda Hamilton in "Devil's Terminator" as a pair of boy and girl friends passing by the town. The two found a child's body left on the road outside the town, because they felt that Something went wrong, so I decided to call the police and drove into Gatlin Town. The strange thing was that there were no signs of any adults in this town, and all the children were under the orders of a...

    Background creation

    "This film is written by the famous writer Stephen King and directed by Fritz Kiersch. It tells the story of a mysterious force in the cornfield controlling a child to kill an adult in the town. The remarkable sickle of sex makes the audience remember deep, shuddering, and frequently appeared in some later funny horror films. The original subtitles of the film misspelled Stephen King's Stephen as ""Steven"". In the original version The...
