User Reviews

for me this is worst of the series so far!

So far I have enjoyed the other 4 movies, at the moment 3rd is my favourite.

Now I just see Children of The Corn 5 - Fields of Terror (1998)

This movie was really dull for me, It had some descent well know actors in this movie as well,The acting was good! there 3 points for that

The story and the plot was really dull and I can't believe that was Hour went pass and nothing scary actually happened in this movie or anything to draw me into the drama .

There was only one scenes with had some nice gory deaths and the final showdown was really boring and to quick!

The ending was way to cheesy and it did not fit in with the rest of the movie as I did not find the rest of this movie cheesy.

2 out of 10 for me this is the worst of the series so far!
