Scarecrow Slayer (2003)
Well this movie was atrocious
I'm sorry if any of you liked it (I hope none of you can admit to that), but this was by far THE WORST horror film I've seen in a long time. It looks very convincing on a shelf and even the pictures on the back make the movie look quite menacing, but after the first 5 minutes into it its like you can't believe you threw about 3 or 4 bucks down the drain. In no way do you ever care about these characters in the least bit. The effects do not help advance the plot but rather make you wonder why they even used effects. And this movie is a lot like a teenager exploitation slasher film aside from the fact they decided to make it on the farm. How original. What got me the most was that I couldn't even laugh at any of it it was so bad. There is a line between funny and extremely awful and this movie has surpassed that line. If you are a veteran horror fan I do not suggest you add this to your collection or attempt to watch it. You will feel violated and sick after wards. The acting is appalling, the effects are worthless and the "monster" isn't even believable as far as costume goes. You feel like its some random snuff film compiled by some rich kids that don't know anything about film or cinema in general. Like someone just had money to waste. This movie was terrible and I hope you never get the pleasure of seeing it.
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)
This movie amazed me
At first when I saw the previews for the re-make of the Texas Chansaw Massacre I thought it was going to be just another crappy re-make. But after seeing it I found myself scared out of my mind. This film is in fact BETTER than the original. Even though the cliché ending in which at least one character gets away (too many horror movies end like this) I still enjoyed it immensely. Instead of polluting the movie with gore and cheap effects they made the setting almost real and very very very disturbing. And thank god they got the new Leatherface to stop grunting, that was one of my major annoyances of the first movie is you couldn't take it seriously because of all the pig-like noise the killer kept making. Instead of showing you all the atrocities Leatherface has committed (with the help of his family) you get to see strange and horrific elements that terrify your imagination as to what he had done. The basing it on a true story like in the 1st movie was better the 2nd time around because you actually felt like it WAS a true story. This was one of the scariest and terrifying movies I've seen in ages and if someone tells you its not worth seeing, don't take their word for it, GET IT YOURSELF! It is a must see for any fans of the TCM original and for horror buffs. You won't regret it.
