Dark Night of the Scarecrow 2

Chris Rhymer moves to a small town in Kentucky with her son Jeremy and is a mystery to the locals, especially to super jerk Deputy Turney. Chris works during the day, so after school Jeremy spends time with neighbor Hilda Corvis. Hilda visits the grave of her long-deceased cousin Charles “Bubba” Ritter every day and one day encounters a threatening man. When local farmer Bill Spoole is killed, police are on the hunt for town weirdo Shrevie Nickson, who was the last person to see the farmer alive. He also saw exactly who killed Spoole. Chris hears a man’s voice coming from Jeremy’s room and the boy gets defensive when she asks him about it. The local sheriff is attracted to Chris, but she keeps him at a distance. When Chris begins asking about a string of strange deaths that occurred in the town 40 years before, she is pointed in the direction of Hilda. Picking up Jeremy one afternoon, she finds Hilda showing him how to make a scarecrow effigy out of cornhusks. The strange deaths begin anew as Chris realizes her young son is a part of something she does not understand. Things only go from bad to worse when criminal Harold Vance arrives in town and starts digging shallow graves out in the cornfield. (VCI Home Video)
