Scarecrow Slayer

This could have been a good movie and a potential new franchise,if it had a bigger budget and a different production company.The costume and make-up of the scarecrow was pretty well done.The acting was really bad,the actors didn't know how to act scared. The visual effects and murders looked like video game graphics.We need a good new horror franchise,but this isn't it.

The movie was so unbelievably bad that it was good. This is assuming that you are watching the movie with friends who will not just make fun of it, but rip it to pieces as you watch. This means that you shouldn't watch the movie with any of the stiffs who declared it the worst movie ever because of the terrible effects, acting, lingo, customs, lack of plot, and so on. They cannot truly appreciate a movie that was purposefully made so bad that people would not have a good time watching it, but instead would have an amazingly fulfilling experience making fun of it. If you like movies that make you feel like you could easily create a better movie in your backyard without even having a video camera then this is the movie for you. If you one of those people who limit the qualities of a good movie to having good plot, acting, effects, lingo, and so on; then you aren't worthy of the Scarecrow Slayer experience and should rethink everything about your movie watching life before it's too late. SCRARECROW SLAYER + FRIENDS = BEST MOVIE EVER!!!

Let it be known, that I enjoy bad movies. I really do. I am an actor, and screenwriter, and have many talented film-making friends. A few of us truly enjoy watching bad movies due to their skill in teaching us how not to make bad movies. But I am afraid I must speak candidly about this "Motion Picture" (for lack of a better term). This is the single worst picture that has ever been projectile vomited onto the silver screen. Within the course of my good friend and I watching this film, we were stunned at the sheer "Badness" of the picture. Keep in mind this is not "Bad" as in Michael Jackson's "Bad", but "Bad" as in: maggots eating a delicious decaying corpse would actually stop gorging themselves, stare in unbelief at the television screen and instantly learn the English language just to be able to say "Please someone kill me now". My friend and I actually lost all of our talents & abilities for a short time watching this movie. We were actually so sapped of strength, that we forgot how to make movies, or how to act or how to create anything because the "Black Hole" of all bad movies had risen in our midst and we began to be stretched out into pencil thin rails as we were slowly and systematically obliterated from existence. The only thing that saved us was the shared experience of seeing the pinnacle of bad movies. Even wading through the immense landfill of "Hammer" films we realized that they could never compare to what was happening to us at that moment in time. At the very least Hammer films are entertaining. They at least gave us something to laugh at until we couldn't keep food down. Please do not get me wrong. This movie must be applauded for its sheer Ability to destroy anyone who watches it. They have succeeded in making a film that realistically could kill you in 7 days if you watch it too long. I gave it a rating of 1 only because -1 was not an option that was given to me.

How do movies like this get made?? Tony Todd was good, but the rest of the cast was sooooo boring!! A total rip-off of Dark night of the scarecrow w/ Larry Drake!! Looks good, but don't waste your time!!! Unless you're into boring, straight-to-video movies!! *Yawn*

I have seen both Scarecrow movies, and this one has different strengths and weaknesses than the first scarecrow film. This film's greatest weakness is its poor cinematography: poor use of computer effects, too many chroma-key shots, and sub-par lighting. The acting is next on the hit-list...it felt like there was no director at all. Even recognizable actor Tony Todd fell flat in this movie. It felt like half the cast didn't even try to act.

It's kind of a shame, since this film takes itself a lot more seriously than the first scarecrow movie, and had a somewhat more interesting plot.
