Children of the Corn III: Urban Harvest is the third film in the Children of the Corn series. The film focuses on two mysterious brothers who, after living in rural Nebraska for their entire lives, are adopted and brought into Chicago; a chain of deadly occurrences surrounding the family follows, and revelations of a cult that the younger brother may have been involved in. The film stars Daniel Cerny in the leading role of the younger brother, Eli, and also marks the film debut of Charlize Theron, who had a non-speaking role as one of the cult's followers. Children of the Corn III: Urban... Harvest was the first film to be made entirely by Dimension/Miramax Films, and the last film in the series to receive a theatrical release. It opened in US cinemas on September 12, 1995. Eli and Joshua are being taken into foster care with Mr. and Mrs. Porter of Chicago after the death of their father. The two boys do not mix well with a home in modern Chicago, their formal, Amish-like clothes from Gatlin and Eli's fire-and-brimstone prayer at dinner, as well as his bringing a suitcase full of corn to Chicago, striking their new parents and neighbors as rather unusual.
