A new take on Stephen King's Children of the Corn wrapped production this past summer, with the new adaptation of the material officially earning an R rating. With some horror fans discouraged by movies that end up with a PG-13 rating, potentially holding back on the terror, this rating will likely relieve fans who were apprehensive that the story's intensity would be restrained. The story was originally adapted for a film in 1984 and, while that film's firsts sequel landed in theaters, all subsequent installments have debuted on video services, the most recent of which being 2018's Children of the Corn: Runaway.
