Synopsis

AN ADULT NIGHTMARE. From the author if THE SHINING, CARRIE, FIRESTARTER, THE DEAD ZONE, CHRISTINE
And a child shall lead them... In the drought-stricken prairie lands of Nebraska, the corn crop has failed. Nothing thrives In the arid soil and people pray for rain. Into the small community of Gatlin comes a sinister boy preacher, with a message for the children: only human blood will restore life to the parched earth and revive the dying corn. So it is that all the adults perish one hot Sunday, as their sons and daughters obey the savage commands of Isaac and his bloodthirsty executioner, Malachai. Three years later a young couple on their way through Nebraska get lost in the maze of roads round Gatlin, and stumble into the seemingly deserted township. But here, every adult must die - victim of a bloody cult of human sacrifice...
