666 is my personal favourite COTC sequel, mainly because I am a huge fan of Isaac Chroner. In this film the original leader returns after waking up from a 19 year coma and leads a new generation of children in preparation for the birth of a new race of children of the corn fathered by he who walks behind the rows himself. Although this film is slightly more slow moving than the other entries in the series it serves to good purpose as it allows a story to develop between the central characters of Hannah, Gabriel and Isaac. Isaac is a very sinister character and after 15 years John Franklin puts up another brilliant performance as the evil preacher, he is by far the greatest leader of the children of the corn and, even though those who came before (Micah, Eli etc.) all did a good job it's great to see Isaac return. John Franklin also wrote the film and did a great job at it. Basically Hannah from the first film is all grown up and returns to Gaitlin to find her mother, it turns out that this is all part of Isaacs prophecy and that she is the one chosen to give birth to the new breed of children. This film has everything a COTC film should have, a great leader, a sinister cult of children, He who walks behind the rows and some gore (Isaac cuts a girls head in half with a machette as a punishment) The gore is probably the only thing which I can complain about in this film as there is quite a lack of it compared to the others but then again, that's not what this film is about so it can be excused. The fact that Isaac is now a man is also excusable due to the simple fact that he is Isaac Chroner, the real leader of the children of the corn.

This is getting beyond a joke. This is the second horror film with which I have had to remedy the frankly ludicrous ratings of which they have been given.
This film is utter nonsense. It is clearly not a horror film, more a grossly unfunny romantic comedy...without the romance. The fact the the main element of 'horror' comes from a silly little man with a funny voice is beyond anything I could have imagined.
Gasp as he opens his eyes from a 19 year coma, reel in fright as he cleaves some poor girls head in half, but generally laugh as soon as he opens his mouth. This 'harbinger of terror' would not look out of place in the adventures of the 'caring and sharing' Moomin...

Stephen King's first CHILDREN OF THE CORN was a scary, suspensful and well acted horror, and this has remained throughout the five sequels which followed.
The second was great, and so were three and four. Five went a bit down hill, but 666 has to be the best one yet!
John Franklin gives yet another terrifying performance as Isaac, who has been in a coma for the past 19 years. He is about to be reawakened to take on his final destiny with a new cult of children!
If you have seen the other sequels or if you are an avid horror buff, add this to your collection! And at the bargin price you'll thank Amazon for delivering the most frightening series of films since THE EXORCIST!
Roll on CHILDREN OF THE CORN: REVELATION!

Isaac is back!!!
Well is not the best of the movies but it is good to see an old character back and the same actor as the first movie, but like most of the times first parts are the best...

Do not bother
Really not worth watching. Story by this time is very tired. Looked at my watch a lot through it. Should really just have stopped after making the first one. Which was a good film. Read more
