Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

... like driving nails into your head with a pipe wrench or slamming various body parts repeatedly in a car door.I want to put Spoiler on this, but I think the movie's spoiled enough on it's own. Just scrape it into a Glad bag and leave it on the curb.I'm amazed that someone actually made a movie that manages to be WORSE than "Manos: The Hands Of Fate."Thank you, Leonard Kirtman, for making me renounce my home theater system. If there was a way to give a movie a lower rating than 1 Star, I would've jumped at it and shoved it down this movie's throat. (And I'm usually not a violent person...)We picked this stink-burger up in a 50 movie boxed set for $9.95 (which comes to about .20 cents per film), and that's still .20 cents more than this was worth (and probably pretty damned close to what it cost to produce it in the first place). I'm tempted to go back to the store and demand my .20 cents back for this one.The package said that it had a headless horseman on a ranch. That sounded cool!... Headless horseman in the Old West? How cool would that be?! So I put it into the machine. It's just a bunch of hippies getting stoned with a Super-8 movie camera and stumbling around a poorly created 'ghost town' set that would've made a much better paint-ball field than a movie. In fact, I think I'd rather have watched a bunch of stoned hippies stumbling around playing paint-ball than this. At least that would've been entertaining.So here's a list of Pros and Cons!Cons: Bad acting when they actually remember to act. When they aren't acting, it's even worse.Poor sound recording. I think I understood maybe 6 words in the whole movie. Everything else sounded like it was recorded at the end of a 100' galvanized pipe.Jumpy editing. They have Day for Night and Day for Day and they toss them all together into the same scenes.Lame monster. He goes around flinging blood at people from like 10 feet away. Doesn't actually kill them. I'm guessing that the Fur Is Murder idiots use this as a training film.Drug use indicated by flipping color filters. It didn't really get the point across so much as make you realize what a total moron the director was. The actors weren't good enough convey it, so I guess the director decided it was up to him to show us what was going on. And, it didn't work. At all.Pros: ..... um..... dammit. I guess I don't get a RAM chip, Joel. :o(

"A young man inherits his uncle's western ranch and invites his friends to come along and help out with the operation. After arriving, the caretaker explains to the group the legend of the headless horseman who roams the area to seek revenge. Laughing off the legend as the ramblings of an old man, the group are then shocked when the phantom rider appears, causing the deaths of some of the group," according to the DVD sleeve's synopsis… This is one of those films for which even the lowest ranking seems too elevated - but, perhaps it's earned by walk-on Ultra Violet's "Superman" lunchbox.* Curse of the Headless Horseman (1974) Leon Gucci ~ Marland Proctor, Don Carrara, Ultra Violet

I have seen a lot of bad movies, but this is definitely one of the worst. It is so bad, that it's not even funny. The movie is about a bunch of hippies who move out onto their friend's ranch that he inherited from his deceased uncle. They attempt to bring tourists to the ranch, but no to avail. Soon, a random guy riding around on a horse with a fake head under his arm shows up and sprays blood on people. The dialogue is horrible, the acting even worse, and the thing doesn't even make any sense. If you watch this movie in hopes of graphic violence, you will be disappointed, this violence is next to nothing, and when there is violence, it just looks like someone squirted ketchup on the actor. All in all, this movie totally bombed and I advise you to avoid at all costs.Rated: PG for Violence and Drug Use.Grade: F

This doddering regional horror implosion vaguely illustrates a disused movie ranch being converted to a roadside tourist attraction by a group of communal hippies. Their progress is unexpectedly hindered when the titular specter arrives en scene, coalescing with a spooky local legend. Predictable tedium unfolds, culminating in a juvenile "Scooby Doo" anti-climax.Warhol entouragette Ultra Violet attempts a sixteenth minute of fame in this flimsy drive-in drivel. It's a lousy, awful looking film which doesn't even offer sufficient psychotronic largess.Seventy-five minutes which feel like a life sentence...skippit. 2/10
