Meet Corey Frizzell

In the original Children of the Corn, many actors were brought together to keep us terrified by children in a small Nebraska town and cornfield. One actor's name you may not recognize, but are sure to remember his performance, is Corey Frizzell. Corey played one of the children from Gatlin and was featured in several scenes. One thing you may not know is that Corey also was a stand-in double for the character of Job, played by Robby Kiger. One of the big scenes memorable to Children of the Corn fans that you may not have recognized Corey in was the "Town Hall" scene where Burt (played by Peter Horton) roams the town of Gatlin looking for residents. As he enters the Town Hall, Job follows him into the building. Contrary to what you might of thought, all of the scenes inside the fictional "Town Hall" featuring Job were not Robby Kiger. Due to Robby shooting elsewhere, Corey stood in for him during these scenes.


Corey, who lived in the Sioux City, Iowa area during filming, now resides in Tennessee. And even if you haven't heard Corey's name before, there's a good chance you have heard the name Frizzell, especially if you listen to country music as David and Lefty Frizzell are his uncles and his Dad is Country Gospel Artist Allen Frizzell! After spending years in the boxing field, Corey now works full-time as a portrait and graphic artist, having done portraits for some of the biggest names in country music such as George Jones, Randy Travis, Mark Chesnutt, Brad Paisley and Alan Jackson.
