I never really got very far in it. But it stuck with me ever since I originally got my hands on it.

The upcoming slasher Clown in a Cornfield may be the third film for Eli Craig as a director, but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t significantly impacted the horror genre. His previous films, Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (2010) and Little Evil (2017), are now considered cult classics, with Tucker & Dale vs. Evil often named one of the best horror comedies ever made. Fans were ecstatic when Craig was announced as the director of Adam Cesare’s 2020 novel.
