* TheScrappy: Some viewers don't particularly like Job and Sarah. For instance, [[http://1000misspenthours.com/reviews/reviewsa-d/childrenofthecorn.htm 1000 Misspent Hours]] argues that their presence undermines the movie's scare factors, both through Job providing an unneeded narration in the opening and having the two children aid Burt and Vicky, minimizing the threat of the cult in the process.

** The other children don't protest when Malachai speaks out against Isaac, and in fact help him crucify Isaac on a corn cross. Did they believe Malachai was more fit to lead as a faithful follower of He Who Walks Behind The Rows? Or were they simply more afraid of him, and acted so that he wouldn't try to hurt them as well?
*** As further proof for either interpretation, earlier in the church, the girl teacher sends one of the boys to tell Isaac about Burt's presence, but then changes her mind and tells him to bring Malachai.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: [[EvilVersusEvil The rivalry between Isaac and Malachai]] for control of the other children, based on their differing beliefs regarding "His" commands, is arguably the more interesting storyline, but it's mostly just used as a subplot to the more conventional narrative of Burt and Vicky trying to fight the cult and escape Gatlin.
