Milo then begins stalking and killing off the young women.

Answer: Isaac

Isaac eventually returns for the sixth movie, titled 'Children of the Corn 666: Isaac's Return'.

Answer: The Children

This 1980 oldie but goodie is great for fans who love cheesy '80s horror. After the schoolbus drives through the toxic fog, five of the town's kids become intent on giving hugs to everyone with their black fingernails. This results in the victims burning to death.

Answer: Military Academy

'Damien: Omen II' is the 1978 sequel to the 1976 British classic. Damien goes to live with his uncle and aunt in Chicago, where he attends Military Academy with his cousin Mark. One of his antics while attending military school include almost killing a classmate just by looking at him.

He is also responsible for the death of a reporter who gets too nosey about his life. She gets hit by a truck after having her eyes pecked out by angry ravens, who are controlled by Damien's power. Damien eventually realizes his true identity when he discovers the number 666 on his scalp.

Answer: Bloody Birthday

This movie opens showing a solar eclipse in the year 1970. At the same time, three children, two boys and a girl, are being born. The strange thing is that it is never explained in the film why the children have the need to kill everyone, from their teacher, to family members. Most everyone in town doesn't suspect anything is wrong, as the children, who stick together during the killings, put up a good front acting innocent when caught in certain situations, making it very convenient for them to keep getting away with murder.

This '80s slasher stars Julie Brown (of MTV fame), Jose Ferrer, Susan Strasberg, and also has a very quick cameo by Joe Penny.
