Disciples of the Crow
"Disciples of the Crow" is a 1983 short film, the first adaptation of Stephen King's short story "Children of the Corn" (1977), although it is very loosely based on the story. It was directed, written and edited by John Woodward, and co-produced by Woodward and Johnny Stevens, with music by Bill Averback, cinematography by Johnny Stevens and art direction by Kyle Sullivan.
==Plot==
The film begins in 1971 in the small town of Jonah, where a boy named Billy with a distinct birthmark on his jaw is performing a religious rite in front of a rudimentary cross in a cornfield, with a crow looking on. Afterwards, he join several other children in a barn, where they brew a broth made of corn, herbs and a toad. The children seemingly receive visions from the smoke, and chant together. Later that day, the children are attending church with their parents, where they hold a silent conversation between each other. That night, the children murder their parents in their beds.
Cut to several years later, Burt and Vicky, a quarreling couple, are driving through Oklahoma. After hearing a bizarre religious sermon on the radio, they accidentally run over a boy standing in the road, only to discover that his throat has been slit, with a knife that has a crow shaped handle. Finding their way to Jonah, not noticing that one of the scarecrows in the cornfield is made from a human skeleton, the town seems abandoned, though Burt hears children in the distance. Unknown to them, a now teenaged Billy has a vision of their arrival, and sends the other children to attack Vicki in the car while Burt is investigating a church, where he discovers a heavily revised Bible. He is suddenly startled by the appearance of Billy, and hears Vicki scream outside, as the teenagers attack the car with axes. Coming to her rescue, Burt is attacked by Billy who is wielding a cross with a hidden knife inside, but Burt takes him down, and tosses the car keys to Vicky, letting her escape, though she is forced to kill one of the cultists with the crow knife. The couple manages to escape the town, though the car is damaged by a corn husk stuffed into the engine, and Burt wonders out loud how no one else has found Jonah, unless it really is protected by a cruel and bloodthirsty God.
