On All hollow's eve in 1862, a confederate soldier and his commanding officer are attacked by the headless horseman, flash forward to modern day and we find seven friends on their way to a Halloween party. Of course they take a 'short cut' and get lost (as teens tend to do in these kind of films) and end up in a ratty old hick town where the horseman starts to use them as cannon fodder. Apparently, his head grows back a tad with each decapitation around his belt that he sends through a whirlpool vortex to hell (don't ask) their only chance lies with a magical fabled sword (again don't ask)
I had no clue this was a 'sci-fi original' when I rented it, so it's my own fault for watching it. Typical lousy acting and atrocious CGI for one of these films, the story is a tad more interesting than is usual the case, but it's still pretty bad. It's always good to see Richard Moll in a film (I did grow up on Night Court after all) but that's one of the very few things that this movie has going for it.
My Grade: D+
DVD Extras: Trailers for "Day of the Dead" (2008), "Senior Skip day", "Mega snake", & "Black ops" (formally Deadwater)
