Hatchet 1 & 2


Storyline
 
Hatchet is a 2006 American slasher film from Ariescope Pictures directed, produced, and written by Adam Green. Set in the Louisiana bayou, it is the story of the legend of Victor Crowley. A group of tourists discover that the legend is real and more horrifying than they ever imagined.

Review

When I first saw the trailer for this movie on www.upcominghorrormovies.com I was so stoked and excited for this movie. It was awesome to see a new face added to the horror icon roster and I truly believe Victor Crowley has what it takes to stand toe to toe with the other horror heavy weights such as Jason Vorhees or Leather Face. I read a lot of review about this movie and a lot of people complained that this was nothing new and it was just another slasher film... What are you going to expect? Of course it's a slasher film and for those people who were opposed to this because they thought it was just another Jason movie well ever wonder if this could be the next generation of slasher for today's youth. This movie was awesome in so many ways it was funny and scary and had lots and lots of gore. If you like movies like Friday The 13th or Texas Chainsaw Massacre then you will love this movie so check it out when ever you have the free time.

What To Expect 

Some good old horror with lots and lots of gore and a lot of cool ways to die.

Random Thoughts I Had While Watching

- Victor Crowley defiantly needs to meet Jason Vorhees 
- I can't believe Kane Hodder (Jason Vorhees) plays Victor Crowely... AWESOME!

My Rating

8.5/10





Storyline

Marybeth escapes the clutches of the deformed, swamp-dwelling iconic killer Victor Crowley. After learning the truth about her family's connection to the hatchet-wielding madman, Marybeth returns to the Louisiana swamps along with an army of hunters to recover the bodies of her family and exact the bloodiest revenge against the bayou butcher.


My Review

OMFG when I found out the sequel was finally going to be made I lost it and went insane waiting for this movie. The first thing I heard about this movie was that it was going to be way more brutal then the first so I was expecting a lot of gore and carnage. This movie did not disappoint at all. Victor Crowley is certainly trying to step it up compared to Jason Vorhees and these two I can certainly say plan out on how they will kill their next victim. With that aside the cast is amazing and I think they were better in this movie. Replacing the lead character of Marybeth was was a awesome decision and who other than scream queen Danielle Harris to play that role. Hatchet 2 was 100x better than the first one and I hope there come out with more and make this one into a franchise. If you want to find out the origins of Victor Crowley hopefully this movie delivered enough to answer some questions you had while watching the first film.

What To Expect

A smoking hot lead character and buckets and buckets of blood and gore.

Random Thought I Had While Watching

- Wow I never realized how hot Danielle Harris is
- C'mon Hollywood get Jason And Victor to fight already!

My Rating

9.0/10
