One hundred years before this story begins... it was a time of darkness in Transylvania... A time when Dr. Abraham Van Helsing... and a small band of freedom fighters... conspired to rid the world of vampires and monsters... and to save mankind from the forces of eternal evil...

They blew it.

"You're not a virgin, are you?"

Robby Kiger had great comedic timing for a kid. Job's narration in "Children of the Corn" was unnecessary, but his character was the only person who seemed to have sense.

Job: Is it dead?

Burt: I think so.

Job: Then why are we still running?

Horace uttered the iconic line, "Wolfman's got nards!", but Patrick was the funniest member of The Monster Squad. I guess not scoring any monster kills kept his character from making a big impression. That's a shame.

The Monster Squad will be released on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray on November 28 via Kino Lorber. Abrar Ajmal designed the cover art for the 1987 monster movie; a revised version of the original poster (now with Phoebe!) is on the reverse side.

Fred Dekker (Night of the Creeps) directs from a script he co-wrote with Shane Black (Lethal Weapon, Iron Man 3). Andre Gower, Robby Kiger, Stephen Macht, Duncan Regehr, Stan Shaw, and Tom Noonan star.

The Monster Squad has been newly restored in 4K from the original camera negative with Dolby Vision/HDR. The three-disc set also includes the 2018 feature-length documentary Wolfman's Got Nards. Special features are detailed below.

You know who to call when you have ghosts, but who do you call about monsters? The Monster Squad—a group of young kids devoted to protecting their suburban neighborhood from strange things that go bump in the night. They ain’t afraid of no ghouls! Count Dracula (Duncan Regehr) escapes Van Helsing (Jack Gwillim) and adjourns to modern-day Earth in search of an ancient amulet that will grant him final control over the delicate balance between good and evil in the world. To help him, the creepy Count calls on some old friends: the weird Wolfman (Carl Thibault), grotesque Gill-Man (Tom Woodruff Jr.), mildewed Mummy (Michael MacKay) and freaky Frankenstein (Tom Noonan). Standing in their way—The Monster Squad!

Pre-order The Monster Squad.

Jeff picked Children of the Corn thinking he might have missed something in his original viewing, which was not favorable. He is, however, disappointed to find his assessment hasn’t changed. He calls Isaac (John Franklin) and Malachi (Courtney Gains) the best things about the film but laments the filmmakers didn’t stick with the original script or something closer to King’s short story. Crystal saw Children of the Corn when she was a little kid, probably too little she admits, and she loved the idea of kids ruling the world. She still loves the film but goes so far as to say it does suffer a bit now. Hating it then and still not thinking too much of it, Chad felt cheated by the ending. He did find the character of Isaac mesmerizing but he still doesn’t understand why Children of the Corn is sometimes referred to as a classic. Bill loves King’s original story and is irritated with the film when almost immediately he realizes it doesn’t follow the story’s plot. He likes the film's title, the poster, and the great folk horror mythology of “He Who Walks Behind The Rows,” but, in his view, the filmmakers made too many bad choices.

If you are so inclined, Children of the Corn is currently available for streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime and on physical media as a Special Edition Blu-ray from Arrow Video. 

Every two weeks, Gruesome Magazine’s Decades of Horror 1980s podcast will cover another horror film from the 1980s. The next episode’s film, chosen by Bill, will be The Pit (1981)..  You won’t want to miss that one!
