- 50VarietyVarietyComing nine years after the original, this supernatural horror sequel is a competently made but uninspired effort. Gore fans should dig it.
- 40TV Guide MagazineTV Guide MagazineCalling CHILDREN OF THE CORN II a better film than its predecessor is something like damning with faint praise, but this sequel manages to be somewhat less ludicrous and occasionally a little more chilling than the first film.
- 30Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasLos Angeles TimesKevin ThomasIt must be said that, stuck with a script full of plot holes, director David Price doesn't flinch. Both he and his key actors are clearly up to better material than Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice.
- 10Washington PostWashington PostIt's all incredibly stupid, right down to the predictable romantic entanglements of father and son with the only two women not committed to He Who ... well, you know. Lacking even the cheapest of thrills, this "Corn" is down to its last cob.
