User review:

Very children of the corn without any corn or malice! Very nice film, it was sweet and thougtful and kind. I wish the work of the original author was readily at hand and all of his film adaptations readily available but that is not the case, yet we have this one and it is very nice. I highly recommend it; it was funny and sad and weird and fun and strangely haunting, I really think that kid’s eyes tripped me out! lol, very cool movie…
