Corn *** DVD Directed by Dave Silver Written by Dave Silver Cast Jena Malone .... Emily Rasmussen Don Harvey .... Horace Rasmussen Pamela Gray .... Rachel Haddie Peter McRobbie .... Peder Glock Jamie Harrold .... Frank Holloway Tuck Milligan .... Muncio Logan Wade Mylus .... Derek Hogue Luke Silver .... Gus Haddie PG-13 97 mins They're names we hear every day. Or at least on Sunday if we're frequent watchers of network news shows. Names like Monsanto, Archer Daniels Midland, and even Pioneer are names that drift across the national consciousness. And do we really know just what it is these massive food conglomerates are doing on any typical work day? We know what we're told, but do we truly know? We may finally have some insight into the typical workings of the food conglomerates with Dave Silver's "Corn," a cautionary tale that shows us, firsthand, the potentially deadly possibility of genetic engineering when it comes to our food supply. So what we have here is the story of our heroine Emily, a young lady with a past, who returns to her hometown to have her baby. Sadly, the father, a highly placed state official, isn't interested in helping Emily care for the baby on anything much over a financial level, and even then grudgingly. But before she can take off and appear on the Maury show to force his hand and open his wallet, all agricultural hell breaks loose. A genetically modified crop of corn is responsible for an ecological disaster that our heroine bears witness to, and she's left to warn the town. Of course, with her past on her side, she's not exactly well received by the townsfolk, and neither is her warning. She thus sets out to discover the truth of what's going on here, and discovers that something's very wrong with the local food supply. Facing down the lethal corn, and her own past, she's all that's left to protect the town. Continued On Next Page (vitamin, Page 2) ...
