Movie: Come Out & Play
Jul. 5th, 2013 09:57 pmI have told you guys how much I love Simon Pegg. I saw this image somewhere online and knew it was icon worthy.
Anyway, I didn't get to FYFF today. Work came early, I was tired, etc. After I got home, crammed in a quick cardio workout, showered and ate dinner, I settled in to watch a little horror flick that Netflix provided this evening called "Come Out & Play." The movie is horrible, incredibly slow, and the main characters are idiots. I fast-forwarded through a half hour of them running away from killer children and missed nothing.
The story revolves around a young couple who are vacationing in Mexico who want to rent a boat to go to an island for no apparent reason. She's very pregnant, which is a perfect time to go on vacation in Mexico, I'm sure. In addition, the couple have two kids at home with a babysitter while they travel.
After a boat ride, the couple arrive on the island where they find only children, no adults. As one father eventually comes out of hiding, you learn that the children just spontaneously become homicidal for no reason and went door to door killing the adults. They apparently cleaned up too because all the bodies are gone too. The one father gets tricked by his own daughter, the couple stand there until his cries in the distance are over, then decide to make a run for it.
After 30 minutes or so of them running around the island with nothing much happening, the couple gets trapped in a building, she goes into labor and both she and baby die, he finds a gun and starts shooting the killer children. As he runs to the dock to unhitch his boat to leave, the local authorities show up by boat while he's defending himself from a hammer-wielding girl. They shoot him and are killed in turn by the surviving monster children.
The killer kids then hop aboard the boat and leave to kill more adults. The end.
Save yourself the trouble and rent "Children of the Corn." At least the kids there have a reason they're crazy. It's called a plot.
