Headless Horseman

No pun intended - I am really happy with my summary line to be honest. Even more so because I just came up with it. The connections or similarities to that other movie are just too present. Too obvious in a sense. It does have Michael Pare who is able to hold a movie on his own - and he may be one of the reason why I did rate this better than you may expect.

On the other hand I have been known and blamed for being too kind when it comes to my voting ... so there you go. I do like some of the other actors too - not that I would call this their finer work. Special effects are more or less what you would expect from a low budget movie. Maybe a bit better? Again, low bar and all that - can't compare this with bigger budgeted movies ... like The Crow ... well you shouldn't.

Well the description is misleading says he makes a deal with the devil just as he is being decapitated...decapitation is not even on the radar with the main character. He just gets shot like a zillion times, but the main protagonist if you notice is wearing a wolverine bomber jacket in the beginning and then gets a claw similar to wolverines and then of course the flaming pumpkin head and motorcycle which is obvious a ghost rider knock off. So he is wolve rider or the ghosterine, take your pick. Having said that it was just insane to hold my attention for the entire run time and not be resentful. Oh and Jaime from the progressive commercial is in it. He's a crack junkie bad guy which was quite strange to see him in this role.

Cheap even by Asylum's standards and lacks the charm I normally find many of their films to have, even though they are normally not "good". They're normally fun, and entertaining this was just an unoriginal dull plot.

No new or interesting touches or ideas.

The acting wasn't great, the lines were stiff and, the location was super lazy in setting. It just didn't have anything fun going on, the plot tried to be too serious. Which really isn't Asylum's strong suit.

Like if you are going to be serious, your film actually has to be good. This wasn't, I've seen worse, but I did feel like this was a waste of time.

This boring mix of Ghost Rider and The Crow is the cheapest movie I've seen they asylum release since their early DV Cam output.

No joke, about 40% of the movie takes place on a bike overpass of a road!

The "headless horseman" aspect is as random and pointless as you can get. The devil decides to give our hero a flaming pumpkinhead for no reason. He also gets a single Wolverine hand to shoot green electricity out of.

The boring plot is this: a guy is killed by his fiancé's biker gang drug lord leader (I hate when that happens) and the devil gives him a deal: revenge for his soul. He then rides around and talks to people asking where they've taken his darling before killing them in bland cgi ways.

To make things even more lame, about an hour in he decides to trust the villains will let her go if he leaves so he does and goes to hell early!

They set up for a sequel as if anyone would ever want 4 more minutes of this story.

I don't know how this tripe gets made. The acting is just laughable to the point where you almost cringe every time a character says a line.

I saw the picture for this movie and thought it looked like a Ghostrider rip off. Which it kind of is. But on a shoestring budget.

The villains are particularly bad, especially the main boss - Angel. A kind of Julian Sands lookalike who tries to sound like Agent Smith from The Matrix.

The one saving grace is Amanda Jones who plays Sophia. She does well enough despite the diabolical script. But even that will leave most movie fans wishing they'd never wasted their time.
