A Disappointing Continuation
... View MoreSimple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
... View MoreIt is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
... View MoreActress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
... View MoreIt feels like they couldn't decide between making an action or a horror movie. Sometimes it also feels like they try to bend the story to match a specific scene. They should have used Bergmans motto: "kill your darling" and cut out some of the "talking" -scenes that doesn't fit in or move the story forward.The main actors couldn't deliver a line if their life depended on it. Try not to smile next time you scream Help! and Stop! And I really hate when they feel the need to set the scene with lines such as; it feels scary! instead of letting the scene play out more naturally and give the actors some more room to act? Several times it actually felt like I was watching two or three movies at the same time. I really liked the sound and music score though.
... View MoreA Joe Pesci look alike and his military friends rob and kidnap a father/daughter combo, escaping in a jet airplane. During flight, one of the robbers grabs the loot and parachutes onto a farm haunted by demonic scarecrows. They land, and it becomes obvious that the human characters here don't matter, scarecrows are the main draw.It's super low-budget without showing too much, and the acting is very b-movie in an enjoyable way. Unfortunately, the story is just a set up to have guys with guns get sneakily picked off by alie.. I mean predato.. I mean scarecrows.But the simple plot works through decent effects, competent direction, and the scarecrows themselves. (They're near invulnerable, wield knives, pitchforks, cleavers, and sew people full of leaves to make them into zombified slaves.) There's some genuinely creepy moments and some laughable schlock. If you don't go in expecting much, this can be a fun ride.
... View MoreThis is yet another first time watch.Its' started of little slow first, then get be intruding, there were really good creepy moment from the scarecrows.I liked how they turned the humans into scarecrows as a well, I did not expect that at all,There were some really bloody moments in this movie but the rest of the movie felt a little bland.This movie was a little to Dark in some scenes, you could not make it out what going on and the acting in this movie from the most of the cast was really poor, the girl worst of them all.5 out of 10 Not bad.
... View MoreFive people rob the Camp Pendleton payroll, kidnap a pilot and his daughter, who are forced to fly them to Mexico. Enroute a double cross has one of the thieves parachute with the loot into an abandoned graveyard surrounded by strange scarecrows. Two of the team jump after their loot and their former partner. Everything happens during the course of one night.....If you yearn for Army versus Scarecrows, you've got the movie you wished for. Everybody else, this is a mundane excuse for a horror film, and probably one of the first instances where gore favours the scares.To be honest the film is really pants and nothing happens. Every five or ten minutes we are treated to a decent shot of a scarecrow, and someone gets killed or stuffed. Repeat this for eighty minutes and you have a bad, boring, bland film, with only a dog with cataracts as the redeeming part of the film.
