The Fields


Finally, Tara Reid and Cloris Leachman are together in a movie. Well…not really. Although they share the top billing in this creepy horror movie from director Harrison Smith, the pair doesn’t really share much time together on the screen. In fact, Reid is hardly in the movie at all, even though she is the mother of the scary kid (Joshua Ormond) who sees and hears things in the corn field next to his grandparents’ house. And that’s fine, because when she is on screen she sucks the energy out of the film. Leachman, on the other hand, is electrifying as the grandmother of the twisted clan. The story doesn’t always make sense, and if you try too hard to figure it out your brain may explode.
